Money as Debt

The Adulterer and a Savior

Writing in the dust was His response
the way He handled their demands
caught red handed she was
judgment was not in their plan

Let the sinless cast the stone
stoning death the law demands
one by one they left
while He was writing in the sand

Where are your accusers
where have they all gone.
no one left to accuse her
sin has sent them on

Neither did He accuse her
go and sin no more
This is what He told her
opening a strange new door

Writing with His finger
words wrote in the dust
what profound mean
written in the dust

The Bread of Life

in the physical, we look for content

the food, the drink, the life divine

we consume we survive

but are never full are never alive

we settle for crumbs

believe we're eat high

all the time missing

The Body, the Bread

The Blood, the Wine

We think of thing from a physical reality, we live a physical life, it's all we know. We have to eat to continue to live, we have to drink or we die, we have to breath oxygen or we die. This is our reality, but isn't there more than just this physical, this touch, feel, see, hear, smell world.

They brought food for Jesus to eat, at Jacob's well, but he stated he had other food. He stated that His food was to do the will of the Father. That's not food as we or they know it.

At another time, Jesus feeds a multitude with only a few loaves and a couple of fish. Later He confronts them, telling them don't work for food that disappears, but for food that's remains to eternal Life. Food which He gives. They ask, what does God require for this food. He replied that they need only believe that God sent Him. They ask for a sign like the manna from Heaven in Moses' time. He says, "I am the Bread from Heaven" There is food to eat that we know nothing about, even those of us who profess His Name. We see in part, there is a veil, this very physical reality, that blinds us from a whole other life. A life so much different than this one, this is only a glimpse, a fragment, just a whiff. Seek the Food that gives Eternal Life. That's where you'll be spending the majority of your time anyway. :)

Zechariah 7: 9,10

"This is what the LORD Almighty says: 'Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or the poor. In your hearts do not think evil of each other.

Help me Lord, only by Your power and Your strength, through Your Holy Spirit do I stand a chance. Help me Lord.

Thank You, Jesus for entering the Temple of my Soul, the Holy of Holies, the new temple built for You. You are the only One who doesn't need a rope tied around Your ankle to enter the Holy of Holies. You are my Priest, my Brother, my Friend, my Love, my Savior, my Lord. In You I place all my trust and hope.

Richard.
