He’s so often judged to be unfair
and accused of not having a heart,
yet only God and His Son
were there the day they had to part.
Only they know the true loss
of being together
when Jesus left heaven for a moment
to give us forever.
Only they knew the longing
of being together again,
as Jesus grew and ministered
and drew closer to the end.
God and God alone
stood at His Son’s grave,
as He grieved for the Son
who had been so brave.
Now only God and His Son
can provide salvation.
We will all be together.
It will deserve celebration.

Psalm 19
1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
(KJV)

I LOVE this passage, Carlos! Our church spent several Saturdays in a row this year memorizing the chapter. I was so grateful the Lord allowed me to remember it, especially with my issues with memory, focus, and falling asleep. It is incredibly touching! Thank you!

In Portuguese,
“a strong man to run a race.” Psalms 19:5
is
“a hero, running your way.”
is
“the Only True Hero”!
I loved his poetry and copied it for me!
Thanks and blessings, Gail!

I think we sometimes forget that God loves Jesus as we love our children, and how their hearts must have broken when sin separated them for a time at Calvary. Thanks for beautifully highlighting this, Gail!
