Saving Grace
Salvation
Through revelation
Is our destination
And by the grace
Of God
We have arrived
I Peter 1:9-10
“Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you.”
I Peter 1:13
“…and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you, at the revelation of Jesus Christ.”
In Spirit
What we give
Our attention
Will ultimately
Consume us
If we focus
On the Spirit
We will be
Drawn into it
Galatians 5:25
“If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”
Hidden
You cannot hide
From the presence
Of the Lord
For your life
Is hidden in him

“For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.”
Surrender
Until we
Surrender
To the will
Of God
We will
Not have
Peace
Proverbs 23:26
“My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.”
St. John 6:38

First and Last
Those who were
With God
In the beginning
Will be with him
In the end
St. Matthew 20:16
“So the last shall be first, and the first last…”
Revelation 22:13
“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.”
Kingdom of God
When we
Seek first
The kingdom
Of God
And find that
Then we see
Everything
That exists
Came from that
St. Matthew 6:33
“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

…behold the kingdom of God is within you.”
Drawn into the Spirit
We cannot
Enter the Spirit
By our own will
Rather we are
Drawn into the Spirit
By the will of God
John 6:44
“No man can come to me, except the Father which has sent me draw him; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
The Psalmist
A poem is
Made up of words
Strung together
To convey a message
And when
Put to music
It becomes a song
Psalms 104:33
“I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God, while I have my being.”
In The Garden
I yearn for
A simpler time
When it was
Just me
And my lord
In the garden
With God
When a serpent
Could speak
And the tree
Of knowledge
Yielded its fruit
