Divine Encounter
With faith’s ears, perchance magnified celestially
I’m delighted with His divine whispers…
…echoing eternal love
wafting forever and ever assurance
defying madness and folly of Cupid’s magic darts.
Beyond the unforgettable romantic encounter
that flutters ephemeral affections
my genuine love affair with the Source of compassion
is sealed with eternal covenant
when I accepted His offered life-building relationship
freeing me from the dank prison cell of deathless sinfulness.
Heavenly appointed indeed was our spiritual meeting
never a rendezvous of mere happenstance
since that time, my born-again experience God commenced
as Author* of my everlasting triumph
stamped with His granted redemption, devoid of doubts’ daub.
*Hebrews 12:2 “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…”
