Looking

Of all
Cinquain
But the Lord is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. Jeremiah 10:10 KJV
“Get used
To different”
As we follow Jesus
In a world of conformity
We see
How to
Be different
Our old ways will leave us
As we begin to walk new paths
With Him
Double Cinquain
If you have watched the new movie “The Chosen” you will be familiar with the phrase “Get Used To Different”.
If not, I invite you to watch it
and in Season 1-Episode 7 you will hear this phrase spoken.

Behold, I am coming soon
I hope I find you ready
Might be morning, night or noon
Behold, I am coming soon
Might be at a time inopportune
I hope I find your faith steady
Behold, I am coming soon
I hope I find you ready

Behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of prophecy in this book.” —Jesus (Revelation 22:7 )
And the earth was without form,
(Unorganized, shapeless, chaotic, crude
Actually it was quite rough and rude)
and void; (useless,unoccupied, empty,
Nothing meaningful for any to see)
and darkness,
(Ruled, all robed in black, did creep
All around and) was upon the face of the deep.
And Abimelech said,
(Many years later while on earth he tread,)
“I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me,
neither yet heard I of it, but to day.”

According to NaPoWriMo’s Day 14 Prompt: Grab a book that is nearest to you. Start the poem with the second sentence in the book and then add the 15th sentence from page 24 somewhere else in the poem
So the book nearest to me at the time was my bible and so this poem Is based on:
Genesis 1:2 and Genesis 21:26
The words in parentheses are mine, the others are from the Bible and are italicized.
It’s kind of interesting how these two sentences fit together. 😊
At a time when
Gatherings are discouraged
Sparrows meet together
Feasting on food provided
By their Father in heaven
Tanka
Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Matthew 6:26
(Seeing these birds in the parking lot at my local grocery was a great reminder that God will provide during these unstable times and like the birds I should not worry about what I will eat or drink.)
Raised up for what?
To show His power in you!
Declare His name
Everywhere you travel
That’s His purpose for you
Tanka
Based on Exodus 9:16 scripture where the Lord was speaking to Moses regarding His purpose in dealing with Pharaoh. Just as the Lord raised up Moses for that purpose, so has He done the same for all of us who believe.
We all have a purpose. He created each of us to fulfill His plan. Wherever we are today we can show forth His power as we declare His name. It’s not about us, it’s about Him.
Randomly in my head
Thoughts abounding
Think on these things
God’s word reminds me
I take thoughts
Captive in my head
