P
we sat in the garden
we sat there we two
He showed me a basket
full of words, each a fruit.
He handed me one
said look at this here
what does it look like
what do you see appear?
I inspected its casing
no blemish, no worm
I took a bite , I digested His one word.
He said here have another
inspect it the same
each word do be careful
what you eat and speak you will claim.
I looked at him
as he handed me another
said this one don't eat, lets look at it closer,
you see the one before when I handed it to you?
is a word from me, its tried and true.
this one here is a replica not the same
it looks and sounds good
but wont digest in you the right way.
He took a knife, cut it down the middle
both sides fell open
its core, rottenness ,worms wiggled.
speak slower, listen closer, He spoke to me
each word is a fruit,
each word like a seed.
stay in my word, it is tried and true
its pure to the core, my word is food for you.
inspect what you speak, inspect what you hear
before you digest, bring to me, do draw near.
I will help you sort, I will help you see
my words to all a gift, not all treated respectfully.
I will never leave you nor forsake you
by your side I'm always here
words are like communion
between you and me my dear.
we sat in the garden
we sat there we two
Jesus and His word
feeding me what is true.
