In the spring
It is new
In the summer
It peaks
In the autumn
It falls
In the winter
It sleeps
And when
We awaken
It changes
Everything
I Corinth 15:51
“Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed.”

Water of Life
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting for the Word
I stood alone
In the rain
And felt wonder
At how water
Could fall
From the sky
Like manna
From heaven
An outpouring
Of the Spirit
John 6:33
“For the bread of God is he which comes down from heaven, and gives life to all the world.”
Revelation 22:17
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come…and whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.”
Second Adam
It was hard to conceive
But she did believe
And would not be deceived
The second Adam was Eve
I Corinth 15:45
“The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.”
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.”
Field of Vision
There is a field of vision
I will see you there
Inspired by Rumi
The Least is the Greatest
There is the seed
And that within the seed
Which is greater
There is the soul
And that within the soul
Which is greater
Within the seed is the forest
Within the soul is the Spirit
Which is greater
The least is the greatest
They are the same
The only difference is time
Witness of Myself
In the beginning
There was God
And the spirit of God
There was heaven
And earth
There was Adam
And Eve
Each is a witness
Of the other
St. John 8:18
“I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.”
Awakening
The mind is active
While the spirit sleeps
But when the spirit
Awakens
The mind is put to rest
It is like the dawn
Of a new day
Descendants of God
Art: The Holy Spirit by Waiting for the Word
Our physical body
Did not descend
Directly from God
But our spirit did
If it is so that you
Have received
The spirit of God
I Corinth 2:2
“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God…”
Ephesians 4:10
“He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.”
Love the Spirit
We do not
Need things
We need
Each other
Things cannot
Love us back
I John 2:15
“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.”
I John 4:19
“We love him, because he first loved us.”
