A holy night
When God spoke
Let there be light

Veiled by a multitude of faces

The Power of Death
Death is powerful
It moves us
The death of one
Moved all of us
From the temporal
To the eternal
From the unholy
To the holy
It shifts our entire
Field of vision
Return to Spirit
We are called
Out of the world
Into the Spirit
When the unholy
Enters the holy
It is made holy
I Thessalonians 4:7
“For God has not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.”
Romans 8:9
“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit…”
Be Holy
If we think
That God
Would see us
As less than he is
We are not holy
We are made holy
By the blood of Christ
Hebrews 10:10
“By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”
I Peter 1:16
“Be ye holy, for I am holy.”

“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord.”
Made Holy
We become like he
Who made the image
Through the image he made
And that image is holy
Genesis 1:27
“So God created man in his own image…”
I Peter 1:16
“Be ye holy; for I am holy.”

Be Holy
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting for the Word
If we see ourselves
As other than holy
We are unholy
And have forgotten
Our place
And who we are
I Peter 1:16
“Be ye holy; for I am holy.”
Timeless
Like the anchor
Of a ship
We are the
Time-bound soul
Of the infinite
Timeless Spirit
Psalm 103:31
“Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.”
Holy
Who are the holy ones?
They are all holy
There is only one sinner
One who is made whole
Through her sin
By the grace of God
I Peter 1:16
“Be ye holy; for I am holy.”
Holy Instant
In one instant
I was filled with joy
Overcome with love
All at once
That moment
Of reality
When it dawned
On me
That I was
Someone other
Than who
I appeared to be
For the Love of Christ
