I sat.....wide-gazed..
Life's possibilities....
Not without the Cross
Pinning me to earth notwithstanding
The joys, happiness
That must have been mine
This and that would have made life unbearable
If not for embracing the Cross
Befallen yet whole in spirit
Daily by the bedside
Immortalized by the man on the Cross
Nailed, crowned and crushed to death
Daily by the bedside
i die from sin, mistakes
Over acts only by your Cross
Was redeemed
Without the Cross! How blessed is mankind, that we do not have to bear the pain our Lord did that day. Mankind will never come close to anything that Jesus did for us. We should all be down on our knees thanking Him for the ultimate sacrafice. Did we deserve it? NO WAY! ! But God knew it was the only way that mankind was going to be allowed into Heaven, through the blood of the Lamb, Jesus! All of our knees should be callused! God Be with you, Linda
your faith in christ shows there as allways..our faiths should overcome our fears
We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the great act of the man, we're forever free. Thanks for this my friend
regardless of beliefs, we have only one GOD...regardless of faith, we pray to only one GOD..this is a reminder for this holy week...thanks for reminding dear friendhip..naizz

Fabulous lenten reflection Meg...truly inspirational.......10++++++
I am always reminded of Christopher Robin kneeling in prayer when I read the words 'by the bedside' and some of the innocence and beauty of this imaginary boy comes across in your humbly penned lines of reflection and supplication. Although prayer has never been my choice of spiritual expression, I nonetheless understand perfectly where this piece is coming from. There are many doors into love and compassion. You have opened yours with grace. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
