men will throw away
to the rodents and bats
their idols of silver
and their idols of gold,
which they made to worship.

the whole mountain trembled violently...

I've Been Loving You Too Long...

Aware that his disciples
were grumbling about this,
Jesus said to them,
"Does this offend you?
What if you see the Son of Man ascend
to where he was before!
The Spirit gives life;
the flesh counts for nothing.
The words I have spoken to you are spirit
and they are life.
Yet there are some of you who do not believe."
For Jesus had known from the beginning
which of them did not believe
and who would betray him.
He went on to say,
"This is why I told you
that no one can come to me
unless the Father has enabled him."
From this time many of his disciples turned back
and no longer followed him.
~ John 6

but one we have had

I ask that we love one another.

Father To Son

And these words
which I am commanding you this day
shall be first in your own minds and hearts;
then you shall whet and sharpen them
so as to make them penetrate,
and teach and impress them diligently
upon the minds and hearts of your children,
and you shall talk of them
when you sit in your house
and when you walk by the way,
and when you lie down
and when you rise up.
And you shall bind them
as a sign upon your hand,
and they shall be as frontlets
(forehead bands)
between your eyes.
~ Deuteronomy 6

The Last Ebionite Child

Blessed is the man
who perseveres under trial,
because when he has stood the test,
he will receive the crown of life
that GOD has promised
to those who love him.
~ James 1

Global Warning

You warned them to return to your law,
but they became arrogant
and disobeyed your commands.
They sinned against your ordinances,
by which a man will live
if he obeys them.
Stubbornly
they turned their backs on you,
became stiff-necked
and refused to listen.
For many years
you were patient with them.
By your Spirit
you admonished them
through your prophets.
Yet they paid no attention,
so you handed them over
to the neighboring peoples.
But in your great mercy
you did not put an end to them
or abandon them,
for you are a gracious
and merciful GOD.
~ Nehemiah 9
