Let’s
refer to it as ‘Life’s repeating theme’.
Carefully
look around, and don’t forget to listen.
Let
me know if on your ear it has also fallen.
This
theme about we all seem to dazzle,
Is
that life is one circuitous cycle.
One
whose start we can never, ever seem to find,
And
whether there’s an end that will ever unwind.
In
our unending search for life’s mystical start,
We
find one piece, then learn… there
is another part.
Molecules,
atoms, protons and nuclei,
Big
bang, galaxies, matter -- dark and anti.
Life
leads to death, and from death, life again.
Where
all goes is exactly where it’s been.
Seeds
die, give life, and then new seeds will sprout.
Plants
die, fertilize soil, new plants come out.
Stars
die and are born, as with galaxies.
Same
for us, years, birds, bees, economies.
Though
futile all these cycles seem to be,
Unlock
this mystery… with the right key!
The
bookends of all life are God,
Himself.
Leaving
Him out means ‘books falling off shelves’,
Turning
our ‘wisdom’ into meaningless babble,
As
we stretch to embrace life’s mystery cycle.
All
along, The Bible affirms life’s design,
With
time was never, ever meant to align.
Forever
is the word that life silently screams,
As
it waits from endless cycles to be redeemed.
Endless
cycles is the price creation paid,
For
the first sin that, at mankind’s feet was laid.
Solomon
called it ‘vanity of vanities’. *
It’s
creation waiting from our curse to be freed.
For
this freedom, the price has already been paid!
It
was paid when, in the tomb, Jesus Christ was laid.
And
ever since His self-predicted resurrection,
Creation’s
been waiting for...His inauguration.
For
Him to be inaugurated, God’s in...no...hurry!
Meanwhile,
until that Day, with Him ‘favor we can
curry’.
To
get on His transition team, you’ll need a new birthday, **
So
on His team you’ll stay... on His
Inauguration Day!

Again Salvation Day!’
