Immanuel Approach Memo
Continued from All Will Die
I am… drunk.
No longer on wine
Not yet on the spirit
On forgiveness
The architectonic reordering
Of how I relate
To morality
Reality
Myself
Him
I look to Jesus.
“Damn!”
I say
“That’s amazing stuff!
How
Do I
Get more of this?”
Jesus grins.
But I can see
The pain
Hidden
In the corners
Of His eyes
As He points
To a small wooden door
In the back
And says:
“You have to make your own!”
To be continued
Reflection
I feel…
- Delirious
- Gleeful
- Grateful
- Foreboding
Scripture
“Higher than the highest heavens— that’s how high your tender mercy extends!
Psalms 103:11-12 TPT
Greater than the grandeur of heaven above is the greatness of your loyal love, towering over all who fear you and bow down before you!
Farther than from a sunrise to a sunset— that’s how far you’ve removed our guilt from us.”
Inspired by Prayers on Fire for Men
