Inner Gold
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An elaborate temple
built
for You
Furnished with gold
Golden altar
Golden bowls
Golden dishes
Even gold sockets
for the doors!
How is it that
You dwell
in me?
A shabby shack
to say the least!
I guess it means
when your Son
said:
“It is finished!”
He’d redeemed
even…
this shed.

I’ve been reading in 1 Kings 6-7, lately. Several times I’ve read over the details of the temple that Solomon built, and I’ve pondered and marveled over the power of Jesus blood to cleanse people enough that the Spirit may dwell in them. Wow! ” There’s Power in the Blood!”

Thank you, Caddo! It’s going to be a chicken soup weekend, as the boys are sick. Guess who might be next? We are safe and cozy – so I can’t complain. Hugs to you.
