"Continuation In Him"  [Module #112] (John 8: 31-32)

To stay the course on upward swing
Of loop, rewards such life will bring;
For after roller-coaster pause
At top – continue on, because –

That’s where life truly now begins
To show itself in different things
Than we have known in life to date;
Freed from our lifestyle – just can’t wait –

To enter in the Promise Land;
“Work in the temple – understand
It’s not as staff that you’ll work there,
But as a part – and naught compares –

With this new life – it’s body life
Development – to day from night;
For all and sundry, temple now
Is people formed in Him somehow.

Lord, as this new day I begin,
Help me to keep perspective in
This new assignment we’ve picked out –
Reward indeed – without a doubt –

It’s life out on adventure’s ledge;
No well-worn path – a cutting edge
Not only for humanity,
But art-form’s possibility.

So Lord, this day – one more in Thee,
Starts up quite soon, where there will be
Maturing crops You planted well –
Your kingdom come, road turned from hell.

For hell is not just after death,
But now, for all who still have breath;
A life cut off from unity
With You – a hell can only be.

O Lord, help me to share Your word
In ways – through novels – it is heard
By those who need it watered down,
To access Your life-giving ground.

Thanks Lord.
