illumination
darkness does not understand
light of world shines
IX.
pure light shines boldly
on both good and evil thoughts
exposing our hearts
X.
light of truth brings joy
but guilty hide in darkness
cling to familiar

Prayer in “quadrille” form, exactly forty-four words…link to dVerse Poets
Open my hands
to receive extravagant grace
Open my ears
to hear shepherd’s voice
Open my eyes
to see beauty of narrow way
Open my mind
to know transforming truth
Open my mouth
to speak words of hope
Open my heart
to love courageously.
Jesus spoke “Ephphatha!” to deaf/mute man (see Mark 7:31-37)

world of violence
when we tolerate evil
cultures in rubble
align to higher standard
pursue peace with sword of truth
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12)

when Pilate was
looking truth in the face,
he questioned and crucified him

Knowledge is factual, whether or not we learn it.
Truth is timeless, whether or not we believe it.
Love is powerful, whether or not we practice it.
Beauty is exquisite, whether or not we behold it.
God is present, whether or not we recognize Him.
