Resurrection

Listen to poem:

The skies grew dark this day, anxiety stretched under the blanket of darkness. On bended knees they all gathered round at the bottom of the c r o s s realizing what they'd done to the Son of the Father. Jesus gazed at their grief some hatred and others a vision of tortured souls full of , grief, and anguish and sounds of raining tears; all they could see was the blood- stained c r o s s, they forgot that He was a gift for us all. Once more He arose on the third day to be seen only to those chosen ones who spoke, ate, and drank with Him, to receive Him back as Lord. After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up to heaven to sit at the right hand of The F a t h e r. Through H i s death and R e s u r r e c t I o n He reconciled us with deep love back to the Father.

Eve, very little I can not add beyond praise give by others. Your words glorify our Lord and Savior. I wrote of Christ Memorial, event He said, "to keep doing." Placing emphasis on His integrity that saved us all. Congrats again, well deserved 1at place!
