My dear
Good Friday thoughts from my personal collection….. sharing them with you for prayer and reflection…
Surely you will also have thoughts of your own …..

His masterpiece on crossbeams framed
The Father’s love derided, shamed
as mocking human voices chance
a challenge: “Come down, dance
those miracles and cures for us
we’re audience here, don’t make a fuss!”
“You said you can from death bring life
make resurrection come from strife
transform then battered bruised earth
grow green and lush in place of dirt!”
He answers not to them. His love
a channel : earth to God above.
“It is consummated! Done!
For you my Father, kingdom won!
With arms outstretched I now embrace
frail fallen man and raise to grace
from sinful low to heaven heights
from abyss dark to zenith lights.”
The thunder voice from heaven again:
“Beloved Son, my grace to men
will flow flood now through you released
All earth attend : I am well pleased!”
terryq: Good Friday, 2011
And we will continue paying heed and attending even as we struggle and deal with our own Good Fridays.
The good news is that it is not the end. It is the beginning and there is much to look forward to.
Take care. Love, Terry
