Indescribable


Oh Son of Heaven and light of the world,
King of Kings does not begin to describe your place in the universe

Your footsteps echo like thunder in the heavens this world knows
Whispers of your power flash as lightening in the skies of this earth

All of knowing creation fears your wrath for you are God
You walk on the clouds and the stars shine with your light

The brilliant shadow of your glory gives life to the earth
and the creatures of this world seek shade from its' glare

All the host of heaven stands at attention when you speak
And then fall to endless worship at your nail scarred feet

Your power has no measure, Your wisdom no end
There is none to compare to you mighty Son of God

Mere word from your lips brought all of creation
And your Holy whisper will mark its' end

Yet tears of your eyes fall as rain for hearts that are broken
Your heart aches for the lonely the lost and the hurting

Your mercy for the repentant is beyond measure
For they are saved at the willing cost of your life

Oh Lord God, Creator, Savior and King
I know not why the speck of my measure to you matters

For I am only the gathered dust of your work
Made holy and live by your very breath

But I am awed forever that your Indescribable Greatness
Would suffer humiliation to death just for me alone

This "Christ"mas...

"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,  Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." Luke 2:8-14 (NKJ) As "Christ"mas approaches it usually finds me refreshing my knowledge and understanding of what I believe that it is that we as "Christ"ians should be celebrating in our observation of the event of Christ's birth. I do this in ...

If I Worry At All...

For the last year I've been engaged in a writing project that requires me to answer a series of questions posed over the fifty two weeks of the year. My answer to the last question that I chose to answer is one that I decided to share because it's always on my heart and mind... What do you worry about? I know that worrying itself changes nothing but there are some things that cause me deep worry. And of those particular things, there are none that I have the power to change on my own, but they are instead those that I have to appeal to Christ’s mercy to intercede. I have deep worry for the souls of all of my loved ones because I know that despite all that we might find concern for in our passing through of this world, there’s only one account that will, for all time, require an answer from all of us. That response, having already been made while we journeyed here, will leave us without further opportunity to answer. Our choice, made in this current life, will leave us either pr...

An Observance And Observing True Reality...

As Easter approaches, I begin once again considering how our God sees our observance of an occasion as I always do and also what He might truly desire of us in observance above any of our trivial, man inspired traditions . What I come away with in firm conviction is the understanding that the most trivial of my sins, the least of my crimes against God, had the power to forever damn me in His judgment of me and send me into unending torment. And that knowing this one thing in truth and as reality, is key to my correct posture before God in honor of His purpose in the event. That key being the horror of knowing that the price of my very least sin was the shedding of my Christ Jesus' blood and His horrible suffering, because the reality of this brings the deep rending of my heart in awe and gratitude and it makes possible my true joy at the relief of my sentence because of what He has done. I believe this is a part of what God would desire from us in observance of Christ's death a...
