SABBATH SUNSET


"What good can come from Nazareth?
So insignificant!
How could a Governor emerge
From such a settlement?"

"What King can rule from Bethlehem?
From such humility!
How could a man of modest means
Claim Principality?"

"What Lord can walk on Galilee
And vanquish surly winds?
What makes you think a carpenter
Can ransom us from sins?"

His greatness came from Elohim --
And Mary gave Him grace --
In scrolling coasts and fruitful hills
I sense His weathered face.

(13 March 2009, Haon, Galilee, Israel)
