Jesus Christ 'Modernised'

All these wasted years
believing the Church's words.
Then, to discover
two thousand years of 'error';
the wrong 'paradigm' was used.

Old Companions

my name's 'Bear' - just 'Bear'

I was Catherine's best friend

as a small baby

in her cradle and her cot

at her side both night and day

my name's 'Lamb' - just 'Lamb'

Catherine took me with her

where ever she went

telling me of her troubles

throughout all her childhood years  

oh what tales we have

we pair of 'thirty-somethings' 

who've witnessed so much

alas our tales are secret 

stored for one special new child

He Is Risen

beaten for mankind 

crowned with piercing thorns

hung broken to die

though abused and killed

His defeat is victory  

for the Love of God

eyes open though

lids be glued with blood and tears

bringing joy and peace

 victory bursts forth  

light overcomes all darkness 

 His majesty shines

Seven Last Sayings

"Father

forgive

them for

they do

not know

what they do"

 "Amen I say to thee this day thou shalt be with me in paradise"

"Woman behold your son ....................... behold your mother"

"My God .......... My God ........... Why have you forsaken me?"

"I thirst"

"TELELESTAI"

"Father

into your

hands I

commend

my spirit"

Adoramus te, Christe,
et benedicimus tibi,
quia per sanctam crucem tuam
redemisti mundum.
Qui passus es pro nobis,
Domine, Domine,
miserere nobis.

We adore Thee,
most holy Lord Jesus Christ,
here and in all Thy churches that are in the whole world,
and we bless Thee;
because by Thy Holy Cross Thou hast redeemed the World.
Amen.
(St Francis of Assisi)

Alone in Agony

 in sheer agony 

His sweat was, as it were, great
drops of blood falling

My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.

Love ....

silence

no arguments

a week for quiet thought

on our Saviour's sacrifice

God's own atonement for all of our sin
His free gift offered on a Cross

willing us to accept

His pure love in 

silence
