This poem was started during my trip to Israel I May 2008, a trip that changed my biblical mindset!
Things are beginning to happen, quickly! I am getting more and more excited. Each day is a veritable blessing fromt the Lord!
Israel
Israel, Israel sacred land
Land of beautiful people
People, a potpourri of languages and cultures
Cultures weaving a majestic tapestry
Tapestry held together by common thread
Thread, the tie that binds us
Us, brothers, sisters, forefathers
Forefathers, people of the book
Book of God’s promises
Promised land, Israel’s inheritance
Inheritance of those grafted-in
Grafted-in, God’s gift of love
Love of a father who sacrificed his son
Son, sacrificial lamb, redeemer
Redeemer, Lord and King
King of kings, Christ’s anointed one
One God: Father, Spirit, Son
