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!”

It is, you are a blessing! Cheers.
Thank you for helping us see the miracle this is today! 🙂 God bless you, Wendy!
That’s a great way to put it, Debbie! It truly is miraculous!

This truth always amazes me, too – I love how you linked it to the temple…
Thank you, Melody. I’ve read about the temple many times; yet, it wasn’t until this time round that this truth hit me so deeply.

I love it how we are ‘hit’ with new things, no matter how often we read a portion! Powerful stuff!
I agree – it is living word!
What a lovely poem, Wendy–and yes, the Power of the Blood!! God bless you and your family–have a lovely weekend!
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.
