Christ’s Possible Dream – Re - Vised (2 Timothy 1:12b - (translation error corrected))
What would happen if I took You at Your word, O Lord,
And did eight hours –
And if that were the Way
You’d had in mind for me
To do the things You've held
As central to my life?What would happen if I took You at Your word, O Lord –
Believed You –
That there was now a place
For me to move on daily with my life
Without regard
To all the troubles
Which impact each day?What would happen
If the right side of my brain,
And what remains of left,
Enabled me to walk with You, O Lord,
Down paths of life,
Where days and nights were filled with joy
And we could live our lives
In peace and harmony.What would happen Lord, if You were right –
And all this walk
Of struggle
And of hardship, these past years,
Were just as author of Ecclesiastes said –
A puff of wind,
A gentle breeze,
Which wafts now through my window
In the stillness
Of these early morning hours?What if problem was,
I'd still not grasped with firmness
All the beauty of this life,
From what was really
Just my earthly view,
My focus,
And my way of doing life?What if Kingdom Layer
Is all I'll ever need
For such perspective –
Yet enough to offer distance
And a hope
To all of life around –
Not as my thought,
But from Your Word, O Lord,
And poured out daily
Through the lens
Of how You view the world
From here?What if all I really need to live
And work, is life on Kingdom Layer –
Yet from this layer,
(Where folks can choose to live,
If they would choose),
I've point of view
Beyond the Bondar point of view –
Affected
And affecting
All she sees
And does
Because of where she’s been –For – I'm still here?
