Behold The Sun

Behold the sun
and all its authority,
great manufacture
of God

behold God’s man
and all his impurity

prototype written on 
fluid stone – the earth,
its belly of churning,
belching~ dis-pleasured 
groan….

Dear Joe what a deep and profound write this is that conveys so much in such a soulful manner. What valsa said below i agree with that, as she has said exactly what i think, i really love the way you’ve written “ Behold the sun and all its authority, great manufacture of God” brilliant opening! Pleasure reading you today! Sending you light always

God created man as the crown of creation. But man degraded himself and stays inferior to many other created beings and things. It is sad. Joe, you state blunt truths.

There's hope...if not for humanity, then for the blessed individual, who relates thankfully, to the countless gifts and love of good.

Thank you, Oliver. It's all up to us. God made this gracious world...made His man in His own miraculous image, given them sovereign power over devils -- the worship is our choosing....
