My hope for you

Poetry speaks to our minds and hearts and is meant to communicate more than the sum of its words. It is an apt expression of our walk with the Lord. I encourage you to forward this link to those you love. I pray this poetry leads you into reflection and prayer but I also want to start a conversation. You, too, have something to share with others-not only in person, but also here. Your experience is yours to give away to build up and learn from others in the Body of Christ. Share the word that you hear, the experiences you have lived. We are all part of the New Evangelization.If you also want to contact me by email, feel free: genefirn@yahoo.com

The Unveiling

Behold
The veil is forever lifted
For the redeemed
So we may enter into
The Holy of Holies
To offer the Passover sacrifice
In sacramental thanksgiving.
Now, we are no longer separated
From the Great I AM
But, come face to Face
With the revealed Abba, Father
And with the Lamb in Glory
Surrounded by the hosts of Heaven
Crying Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord.
Not just for some
But for all who accept the call,
It is the marriage feast of the Lamb
With the Bride of Christ
Sealing the New Covenant
By our communion
With the Body and Blood
Torn and shed that we may be holy and one
Free to worship without fear
To become part of the
Offering of the perfect Sacrifice
By the hands of the perfect Priest
Each one and the same.
Behold
The Lamb of God
Slain for our sins
Now as Bread and Wine
On the altar of sacrifice
In the new Temple
Of the heavenly Jerusalem.
Here we encounter the Presence
Who surrounds and fills us
The visible sign of the invisible reality.
By our acceptance we declare
That it is the Word of God
We believe and follow and so with pause
Receive also as Judge
When He comes again
Riding on the Clouds.
Behold
Let our Family's sign be crossed with care
For it shows who we are
And the Mysteries we celebrate.
Let us listen with open ears
To the Truth of our Covenant
And resolve to live as we profess.
Let us offer with open hearts
All that we are
Mixing with the water and wine
Our sacrifices with His.
Let us worship in Spirit and Truth
With reverence and awe
The Father through, with and in the Son.
Let us humbly receive the consummation of Love
We are so generously offered-
The heavenly Manna for our earthly journey.
And shout with all the saints and angels
The Great Amen, yes
So be it!
