TRANSFORMATIONS


The Light appeared in darkness. Mercilessly

It exposed sin; mercifully

Exposed the sinner.

 

If, at the wedding, natural joys

Faltered, with Him there

Real joys superseded.

 

If, by the well, she was

Dissatisfied, He could provide

Living water.

 

If, amidst Bethany's friendship,

Death intervened, into it

He obtruded resurrection.

 

Till even the power of death

Invaded by Him

Was transformed.

 

Heaven has received Him

And His presence there created

A prepared place.

 

And now my heart can be

Transfigured

By His presence.
