Profession of Faith

If Jesus is not the Light
all paths are dark.

If he is not the Way
they lead only to darkness.

If he is not the Truth
the signposts are lies.

If he is not the Life
we will not find it.

My faith has been here.

It’s very simple:
My last dollar
I bet on Him.

When I used to go to church

When I used to go to church

I wasn’t who I was

Neither was God

So we both left

Sad

Disappointed


For my church-going friends

I mean no harm

This is poetry

Expressing the experience of many

Not doctrine

Saying how it should be


Grace and peace to you…

What is left?

Now we know who won

what is left to do

but love God

love our neighbor

keep praying

and persevere

with more compassion than ever

through the trials and tribulations

of an evil, evil time.

Grace and peace to us…

If it were the end of days

If it were the end of days,
I’d say:

Let’s do this,
See what God begins next.

Let’s do it together,
See how God loves
from the very next beginning

To the never-ending end.

Grieving

Grieving goes only
where Brave is willing

Brave is alone
trusting

It feels alone
