Word of Creation - Word of Promise

Word of Creation - Word of Promise

 In the beginning was the Word - John 1:1

The Word first brought about creation 

Order from chaotic nothingness

God spoke and the world began to form

The Holy Word called forth perfection that

Mortals, although made in their Creator's image,

Were unable to maintain. Life became death 

Creation was broken - yet held together by 

The Almighty's love and laws and hope 

For the promise of a future restoration

~ ~ ~  ~ ~ ~

The Word of promise came in person

To speak healing, life and a new beginning

To walk and talk with mortals once again

Divine Light entered our dark broken world;

Messiah, promised Word, named Jesus Christ,

Born human, he knew our pain and fear and loss

Christ touched and taught the way back to life eternal

Modeling for all the true manner of being human:

Love, accept, respect; serve and submit 

- And be willing to die for another -
