Warning: God ahead, behind and to both sides

I wrote this a few weeks ago I think, but for some reason didn't share. I wonder why.


God has given
His Word; not seen
before that time
nor understood.

this I can say
with certainty

‘tis a sharp-most
sword; dividing
spirit from soul,
evil from good.

‘parent-ly loss;
our win, his cross

and could it be;
pertains to me?
the church’s claim:
indeed it could.

condition dire
saviour required

child in manger
removes danger
hung on a tree
failure absolved.

humility
eternity

God the loser
who took a risk
God the victor
and Christ his Word
