Immanuel Approach Memo

Continued from You’ll Be Alone

I am… on a boat.

Jesus
Is keeping us afloat
While we fish

Through storms
Ice
Broiling heat

I look to Jesus.

I ask:

“How are you doing this?
Why are you doing this?”

Jesus looks to me.

He asks:

Son of man
Why did you become a gunslinger?”

I answer without thinking:

“Because there is great evil in the world
And only a few of us
Are willing or able
To do a little evil
To stop it”

Jesus smiles.

We head to shore
And beach the boat
Next to abundant fields

He finally answers:

“I am doing this
Because it is the only way
To get someone exactly like you…”

“Ready for the harvest!”

To be continued

Reflection

I feel…

  • Confused
  • Weathered
  • Guilty
  • Determined
  • Prepared

Scripture

So Ruth worked alongside the young women who served Boaz. She lived with her mother-in-law and gleaned in Boaz’s fields until the end of the barley and wheat harvests.

‭‭Ruth‬ ‭2‬:‭23‬ ‭TPT‬‬
