In order to enter
The kingdom of God
You cannot possess
Anything
You must leave it all
Behind
St. Mark 10:25
“It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”

Path of Life
You cannot know
What lies ahead
On your path
Unless you have
Already been there
If we follow Christ
To our destination
He will be there
When we arrive
Matthew 16:24
“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.”
Psalms 16:11
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life.”
Not Yet My Hour
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting for the Word
It is not yet my hour
He said
Because he knew
The exact time
His spirit would
Leave his body
And enter mine
Turning water
Into wine
John 2:4
“Woman, what have I to do with thee? Mine hour is not yet come.”
John 19:30
“It is finished; and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.”
Selflessness
Selflessness is when
We put another
Before our self
Like Christ did for us
Giving his life for ours
So my life is not my own
I am living the life
Of Jesus Christ
John 6:38-39
“For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.”
Krishna and Christ
“Little Boy Blue!
Come blow your horn,
The sheep’s in the meadow,
The cow’s in the corn.
Where is that boy
Who looks after the sheep?
He’s under the haystack
Fast asleep.”
From the nursery rhyme Little Boy Blue
Chosen Generation
The fall in the garden
Gave rise to a savior
And the fall of the savior
Gave rise
To the Spirit
To a body of people
Who at one time
Were not
But now are
The generation
Of Jesus Christ
I Peter 2:9-10
“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people…which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God…”
Secret to Life
The secret
To life is
Harboring
No secrets
My Lord
Loves
A clear
Conscience
St. Luke 8:17
“For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither anything hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.”
