Seed of Abraham

SEED OF ABRAHAM HABITUAL attendance stacks the odds? God makes no MISTAKES. The stars twinkle day and night, MYRIAD upon MYRIAD for so long. Flowing robes, jutting HUMBLED chests Caressing the torah, oh lovely scroll Kicks those sinners in the pants Dare they to DISOBEY the law The blues: don’t dare to rearrange Our lives so PEDESTAL perfect, My mother so proud on the day, I swore allegiance to my FATHER’S heritage. God starts swatting those stars, like flies, Extinguishing the cigarette butts, Lassoing lies and stealing thunderclaps. He kisses the newborn stars in his see-through palms. They fly like butterflies, like fun confetti, like grains of sand. Sky kisses at the border of heaven, the first stop. Second heaven screams and stomps. The third heaven awaits its lovely SPRING flowers. 3/7/2017 Julia Ward's Someone, or Something Replaceable Contest Galatians 3:29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise (NIV)
