The Stone
Thank you God for our inscribed laws
you placed on a stone tablet
revealing yourself unto Moses
that we may gain knowledge of our creator
and learn that only through you
shall we be set free from captivity
which has sentenced all to death due to sins
one that takes notice from that time to present
can see clearly that with man alone
not even the first laws if one
given can be followed
they act as if they are intoxicated staggering unable to focus and read
unaware of the left foot trying to lead one
to stumble off the ledge
falling and tumbling into the pit
I thank you Lord for the courage
you instilled in David
as he picked out his stone
knowing that with your guidance he would defeat the giant
teaching us to fear not the one that can only harm the body,but come to know you
which is in control of body and soul
I thank you for your son Jesus
for through this covenant the laws from the stone tablet have been
inscribed on hearts and minds
for none can escape their judgment
And for showing all to drop the stone from their hands that where so eager to throw and focus more on oneself, remembering we our all sentenced to death until we are reborn
giving wisdom of the battle is not of the seen but the unseen serpent that crawls in the dark
which has already been defeated
on that third day when the stone
was rolled away
when all the labor pains of the world
was delivered unto a new existence
bringing forth guidance unto the narrow path
I am thankful you have shown me
I was rolling a stone
over the only one which could set me free
crucifying Him daily in my heart
preventing any connection to spark
living in own desires blind to my surroundings
How could I grow when the stone blocked out all light , leaving me to wonder in darkness
I was a dead piece of wood
which had been washed up from the sea
trying to make since of this new land
in search, to be ignited to glow
For only by calling on the resurrection power of Jesus
shall the stone be rolled away
busting it into pieces from His word
allowing the Lord to make himself known within
now learning to crucify myself daily
that I may bring glory to Jesus which saved me
calling on the Lord to find dwelling in thy heart
buring the oldself and being
resurrected by His spirit
building from the cornerstone once rejected
in order to build within the Kingdom
