Easter poem.

Life comes from death, this is the reason for Easter. That beauty and purpose comes from a seemingly worthless seed is the reflection of Christianity.  No other god offers life so abundantly.   

Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time. -Martin Luther


Easter Poem

He is worthy.

Not because of how he died, but because of how he returned to life

And brought with him life everlasting

He carried our sins with him to death
And left them there

The filthy rags we adorned ourselves in
Have been replace with robes of pure brilliance

He has made us worthy
He has made us worthy

Through him we have found ourselves
Wrapped in all he intends

Our eyes, once blinded by our own ambitions,
Now see the beauty designed for us

His purpose, brought to fruition through his sacrifice
Our purpose, found in his love

Our faults, now a seed buried in the ground of his forgiveness
Our past, now a beacon of hope for others

Through him we can live
We can live fully

He is worthy.
