MEETING GOD AND CHRIST ALONG THE WAY
MEETING GOD AND CHRIST ALONG THE WAY
I met God
I met Jesus
In the depths
Of my life
WHEN my body was broken
My finances were broken
And in the midst
Of a broken relationship
That is what Jesus does
HE MEETS US
He encourages us
To KEEP going on
In the midst
Of our brokenness
In fact
The more broken
We are
The MORE
He can do with us
“LOVE and faithfulness
Meet together;
Righteousness and PEACE kiss each other” Psalm 85:10
MEETING God and Christ
ALONG THE WAY
Gives us HOPE
For this journey
We call life
That is what Jesus did
For Mary Magdalene
SHE of the 7 sins
That is what Jesus did
For the apostles (minus one)
And that is what Jesus
Did for Saint Paul
God and Jesus
Gave them ALL
HOPE for the journey
And they all
In turn
ENCOURAGE US
“Let us NOT
give up
Meeting together
As some
Are in the habit
Of doing
But let us
ENCOURAGE one another-
And all the MORE
As you see the day approaching” Hebrews 10:25
Jesus SHOWS us the path
GUIDES our every step
And TRANSFORMS our fear
Into trust
We have to REALIZE
That life NEVER sorts itself out
All at once
We must PATIENTLY WAIT
For God and Christ
To meet us
And show us the way
“You too
BE PATIENT and stand firm
Because the Lord’s coming
IS NEAR” James 5:8
BE patient
UNTIL the Lord returns
For when
You MEET God and Christ
ALONG THE WAY
Along life’s journey
It makes
ALL THE DIFFERENCE
