A new poem for a new season of grace...

I can only preface this by saying that I am blown away by God's amazing love and abundant grace.  I want to serve the Lord God, who sent his Son Jesus Christ, to seek and save humanity.  This is a part of the message - a parable of love, told by Jesus, in Matthew 22:1-14 (find in any Christian Bible).

The feast  by Joanna C Vandersee 18July2017

Breathless arrival.

Yet, one could not

          slip unaided through

the entry Way.

Led, beaming;

          vast corridors of perfection

          glared

at my resistive frame.

Until the Hand that

          bade me welcome

          indicated –

Sit and eat.

And I was shyly resting

          on the pillows of

          majestic grace,

          and dared take crumbs –

and saw

the others too

who feasted

now so far from road and by-way lanes.

I lay back – gleaming,

bright new robe -

then ate up lavish

serves of love.
