“Taste of”

Earth is a Preparation Place:
Saints, because of Christ, find love and joy here, thus a “taste” of heaven.
Sinners, because of rejecting Christ find hate, and pain here, thus a “taste” of hell.

VICTORY WORTH THE CROSS
Posted in death, holy living, nature, poem, science, uncategorized, tagged VICTORY WORTH THE CROSS on January 16, 2015| Leave a Comment »
A lone walnut chanced to drop upon the sod alone,
Where it seemed to lie and simply rot, quietly, forlorn.
Its form was changed, its symmetry gone.
Its kernel worthless to eat,
What an untimely end thus to met.
Deep inside its little heart new life was beginning,
Oh, for a fresh start (another game – not a new inning).
A root from it ranged, a shoot saw the dawn,
A tree, from apparent loss.
Victory is always worth the cross.
– eab, 1/16/78
