It Was Agape Love

For a moment I heard a voice, no a Word I felt This was the light, Truth and the only Way to Home and Eternity Like a feeling I can’t fully express, an emotion overwhelming my feeble heart A hunger for what is not food, a thirst for what was not a drink A bond which goes beyond that of a mother and her baby A belief which is more than what natural reasoning can fully comprehend I saw it, I felt it, I touched it, and yes I did but only through faith made it so tangible It was Agape Love, the Father’s Love now shown through the Son by the Holy Spirit For a moment I wondered what a mystery to be revealed What mattered most to me, had changed All my earthly treasures and gains had become loses as I got into this presence of love In it I saw a Glorious Lion changed into a poor indebted Lamb to be sacrificed In it I saw a Sinless King changed into a sinful slave to pay for a lost world In my tears I thought that was all, but no I couldn’t fully comprehend with all the saints until I got to Calvary where His cross stood I could only imagine, what a width, length, depth and height this love can be Death couldn’t hold Him captive, this love defined His divinity It transformed conforming sinners into holy priests and lost slaves into chosen heirs of God It was Agape Love, the Father’s Love now shown through the Son by the Holy Spirit
