The soul has much to say
A perfect sacrifice...for an imperfect people
What did it take?
Imagine…
leaving the glory
of Paradise eternal
for utter darkness
and despair
Consider
exchanging
Kingly attire
for the finite
robes of humanity
Try
withholding tears
after witnessing
mankind's desperate
heart
Walking
through the masses
of the broken and sick
Pleas for mercy
from myriad tongues
Talking
to the faithful
and the faithless
Both in need
of a Savior
Teaching
those who
hunger and thirst
for righteousness
sake
Healing
with compassion
Refreshing with purpose
Admonishing with fire
a generation of vipers
Weeping...
over the human condition
For souls shooting arrows
of rebuke and scorn
Forever…lost
Fulfilling
the will of the Father
Wearing the cloak
of indiscretion
yet remain Holy
Showing
the love of God
Obedient
Selfless
Free
Enduring
the worst of us
to save us
Knowing the best
is yet to come
Understanding
betrayal
denial
rejection
the sickness of public opinion
Bearing
the scars of all evil
to be done under the sun
Tasting the fists of those
created by His hands
Carrying...
the burden
that no one else could
with humility
Pure charity
Embracing
being impaled
to a tree
An earnest reward
meant for me
Seeing
the Father's back
turned by man's nature
Brutally placed
upon His shoulders
Beholding
conflicted souls
while suspended
between Heaven
and earth
Saving
one last breath
The brief wind
of forgiveness
and soon…triumph
Agents
of wickedness
howling with delight
Satan bathing in
a cesspool of pride
A moment…
of silence
A state of sadness
True believers
crying out "What now"?
Glorious
Resurrection morn
The rolling away
of a stone
For He is risen
Departing
with words
of wisdom and instruction
Evangelizing the world
for He will come again
Ascending
to where He belongs
Right hand of the Father
is His place
Salvation to impart
A perfect sacrifice
for an imperfect people
creed sacrifice
