The Resurrection of the Sacrificial Lamb
When Christ was resurrected from the tomb, sunrise broke the gloomy darkness and the heavy stone rolled away to let Him flee from the tomb of many sorrows; His father waited for Him to declare Him King of Heaven, that place so ethereal, watching the angels bow to the sacrificed Lamb and their song was loud and gleeful!

Sacrificial Lamb
Not all news of its existence brings joy – a heartbeat is denied the trumpets instead, news is shared in long drawn out breaths with eyes that never dry. A vow was broken long before – Those nights, when they turn off the light a silence is broken amidst long sighs. A creature of habit learns...
