Imagine That.

 I haven't been very good at updating this blog. To be honest, school has been weighing me down so much, that I've barely had time to sleep. Not to mention there have been a lot of other distractions in my life lately. Now that the semester is over, I might have more time to write and update. Anyways, here's a poem that I wrote during the summer that I got inspiration for while thinking about some of the things that God is to me. It's very simplistic, with a spontaneous structure. It's a very simple way for me to describe who and what is waiting for everyone that accepts the offer of His proposal.

Imagine That.

Imagine a heart
constructed out of Love.

Imagine a love that is
Unadulterated.
Pure.
Unconditional.
Agape.

Imagine a Sun
with its majesty.
With its warmth.
With its light.

Imagine a warrior
who fights to the end.
Who fights for life
and righteousness.
Who fights for
you.

Imagine a groom.
Waiting for his bride
With love in his heart .
And in his eyes
Is a light that shines
Like a sun.
Fighting its way
For your mind.
For your life.
For your heart.

Imagine that
At this very moment
That heart.
That love.
That sun.
That warrior.
That groom.
Is waiting for you.

Now imagine
That you said yes.

I finished reading the Divine Romance a few weeks ago, and it blew me away. The beautiful prose, the narrative approach to God's story, of this ultimate love story, was so profound to me. Christ has chosen to love this sinful, unworthy, fallen, broken creature. He has chosen to love me. He has chosen to love you. We were predestined to be one of God's children, to be a part of something so much bigger than ourselves. We were called to be part of the bride of Christ. I don't know about anyone else, but I can't wait for that day to come.



Dear Lord,
I thank you so much for the gift that you have given me. I'm so thankful that because of your gift, and your sacrifice, that I can put on your cloak of righteousness. I pray that you will continue to shine your light and goodness in my life and through me, show your love to those I interact with. I pray that you would create a hunger within those closest to me, and that they will realize that you are the living bread, the only thing that can satisfy that hunger. I pray that they will begin to imagine a life where they accept your offer of everlasting life. You are so good to me, always faithful and I love you. It's in your precious name, Jesus, that I pray,

Amen.

What does a nosy pepper do?
It get's jalapeno business!
Bahahaha. I love me some puns.
God bless.
