GOD SPEAKING

Extruding into the darkness

God introduced Himself with the word:

“Let there be light!”

Satisfied with the good earth,

Arena of His operations, He said,

“Let us make man”.

In a world where sin rampaged

On a long tether

God told His servant

“I am Thy shield”.

And reassured another,

“I AM THAT I AM”

And “ I am Jehovah”.

But all moved to that day

When He said from an open heaven,

“This is my beloved Son”.

From that time

The character of God’s speaking

Has been speaking in Son.

But for us to hear this meant

That Christ’s great cry - “My God,

Why hast Thou forsaken Me?”

Went unheard.

Risen he divulged this secret:

“My Father and your Father”.

We wait in patience - as does God -

Till the time of that termination:

“Behold, I make all things new”.
