When we see Jesus, we will see God

Ah,
to see Jesus
when we see Him
we will see God
in His awesome presence

we hear Him
through His Spirit
His holiness
residing within us
to show us
to instill in us
the true way
the only way
to achieve all He
desires of us
body
mind
and soul

we study Him
through His Word
mighty and sharp
loving kindness
and compassion
yet
yet provoked to anger
and judgmental
when our sins
of hatred
and personal desires
take root
and we thrive on disobedience

... thrive only for a short while
because in the lap of personal luxury
all will,
eventually,
wilt and die.
Only in obedience
to the Lord
Our God and King
Our Master
will we truly thrive
and be

Ah,
to see Jesus
when we see Him
we will be in the
presence of
Purity
Completeness
Love

Eagerly waiting
I am
for His return
so I may reunite
with Him
who brought me to life
once
and once more.
