He Walked, They Churned
poem from sermon, 4/14/02, Ref: Matt 9:1-8


He stood there
     spoke boldly
     forgave sins
     commanded he walk
     a walk of belief

Before their eyes
     he believed
     he rose
     he walked, forgiven

They stood and watched
     minds spinning
     stomachs churning,
     awe pushed to the depths
     of darkness

Fear rose within
     how can this man
     do God-like things
     the pain it brings, stings

Is God less
     if He dwells in Him?

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

...Fear rose within...

Quite a profound question. The doubts and doubters are just as strong today as when Jesus walked among Man.

Good write.

(big hugggssssss) I too echo what Melton said, even when He walked, there were many who did not believe He could change so much and save so many, yet He perservered, and sadly there remain so many today that are not convinced by their own hearts of His honor and love! (sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, your words are very thought-provoking! God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Virginia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

God is Love
God is Spirit
Christ is Spirit of Love
Christ is God
Different Words for The Same Love
God in a Word we think of as Father in Spirit
Christ in a Word we think of as Son of Man
It is our thinking that is different
God is God!
