Scriptures Favoured In Verse

he stands at the door    & 
                                    knocks
hear his voice?
                      let him come in
his realm
                is nearby

turn back
                & trust 

for as he was sent
so
are  you  & I

to tend his sheep
     disciple
       & reveal 

not by might or power
but
by
      the spirit 
                           within
