Genesis 1:1
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”
Each life is a book
With many chapters
And when we live life
To the fullest
Experiencing many things
We have many stories to tell
And that is what gives
Meaning to life
We are the author
Of our life
At any point
We can change the story
We spin yarns
Tell tales
Weave tapestries
We create stories
With words
And pictures
We give form
To the formless
This earth is the
House of the Spirit
As our body is the
House of the soul
Our body
Is to be used
To glorify Christ
Not to crucify him
Again and again
All my life
The Bible has been
A presence in my home
First as a child
We had a huge KJV
And although I could not read
I loved looking at the pictures
And I loved hearing the stories
My Dad told us
Then my grandparents
Gave me my own Bible as a gift
When I was 16
And I vowed to read it before I died
And 17 years later
I finished it
So all my life
The lamb he gave me to feed
I fed him the word of God
Until he ate it all up
And was full
Then did my lord
Come for his lamb
The lamb is my flock
The one he put in my care
St. John 21:15
“…He said unto him, Feed my lambs.”
