Human Being
A being of body, soul,
and spirit
Welcome to the Earth.
You have come with a
soul
Shaped by a long past.
Shaped by the future,
too.
Now let it be shaped by
the Earth,
The realm of death.
It will be shaped by
your community of souls
Who only know death,
By which they have come
to know themselves
But, not knowing Christ
They no longer know
life.
Fear not!
Through Christ can the
Holy Spirit work
The healing spirit
That leads you to the
truth.
Be patient!
It may take many
life-times.
It may take an instant.
You may wander through
many a maze
Of quarks and leptons,
Of holographic dinosaur
bones, Artifacts of your creation
Creating many illusions
of pasts and futures
Vast universes, rent by
black holes.
Full of dead, dumb
matter.
But later, if not
sooner,
You will look within.
You will find the power
Through which creation
comes,
You will find the
spirit power
Through which you shape
your future
And yourself.
A
worthy future, when united with Christ.
