God and His Lamb

07 August 2003


The spirit in a heart
is one of consideration
Such a dispelling feeling
of latitude coupled in commendation

This longitude of significance
at a crossroad with desire
Giving warmth as embers
glowing mildly as to fire

Where sanctification was welcome
held apart from bitter coals
Enlightened by an eternal
relationship of merging souls

For this was Christ
in his sacrifice to mankind
A spirit holy in its softness
of an unfeigned love of mind

As if the word radiates
in an importance began
Gifted in reverence to
God and His Lamb


“Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. And if ye call on
the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to
every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: But
with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and
without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation
of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who
by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead,
and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.”
1 Peter 1: 16-17, 19-21 KJV

Definitely a beautiful tribute to God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  You captured the beauty of the Triune God and I enjoyed your poem very much.  Great writing.

God and His Lamb
This is a phrase I will never forget, or that I do not want to forget.  God's son was also God's Lamb.  Often times, we as Chrsitians forget that.  Bless you for reminding us.
