Love, Truth, Consciousness, Christ
Jesus Christ
Finisher of our faith
Winner of the race
He made it
To hell and back
Before we left
The starting gate
Hebrews 12:1-2
“…and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…”
The foundation
For my belief
Was laid
Before I was born
So I built
My house
On that
Foundation
I Corinth 3:11
“For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
We have gotten
So caught up
In the part we play
We have forgotten
Who we really are
St. Matthew 27:46
“My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”
Maybe we have
To pass
Through hell
To get to heaven
That would prove
Who is
Tried and true
I Peter 1:7
“That the trial of your faith…though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.”
His arrow
Pierced my heart
But I did not die
I fell
In love
Man struggles
To find out
Who he is
Though who he is
Has manifested
As everything
That exists
So he can see
Who he is
And still
He does not see
So everything
That man has created
Has been in his struggle
To remember
Who he is
When he remembers
He ceases from his work
And rests in it
Genesis 2:3
“And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.”
Revelation 21:7
“He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”
Take away
All that separates us
And what is left
Take away borders,
Cultures, religions
Beliefs, time, space
All these
Cannot separate us
From the love of Christ
Whatever stands
Between Christ
And his love
Will fall
Romans 8:35
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?”
