The Bible takes us
From the garden
To the time of Christ
And Christ takes us
Back to the garden
Where it all began
When the wisdom of God
Became the knowledge of man

Gave rise to an entire flock

We expand
Our awareness
Of the divine
The smaller
We become

Who we will become
Is patiently waiting
For us to arrive
Leave your past behind
Your destiny is calling you

Romans 8:29-30
“For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son…Moreover, whom he did predestinate, them he also called…”
The absolute truth is not
What appears to be
But the absolute truth
Underlies all that
Appears to be

St. John 8:32
“And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
The only
Way
To the
Truth
Is through
Life

St. John 14:6
“I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
St. John 8:32
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
I John 5:6
“…the Spirit is truth.”
The only way
We can see
What cannot
Be seen
Is through
The body of Christ,
Who we are,
His bride, his flesh
It is within her
That we see
The spirit of Christ
She is his kingdom
And he is her king
Holy Spirit
Blood of Christ
Keeper of the truth
Direct descendant of God
+++
St. John 14:17
“Even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it sees him not, neither knows him; but you know him; for he dwells with you, and shall be in you.”
Spirit and flesh
Intertwined
Christ and his bride
Human and divine
The bread and the wine
His arrow
Pierced my heart
But I did not die
I fell
In love
For the Love of Christ
