Matrix Moments

Media Moments: Question, reflect, connect

Chained Release

The shackles,
chain weights,
Locking together
a discordant community
Lines of people
together
Shuffling together
Across the plain,
through desolate city streets
pained together
Hopeless together
angry together
faking together
questioning together
confusion together
steps to death together
dragging life
the disconnected connected
Broken community
Suffocating in the thick darkness.

And then
emerging of the land
from the mountains
from the forests
comes a harmony,
a rising brightness
a shimmering aurora
a river of free people
a different community
each bringing their part
connected in the spirit
connected to the light
united in faith,
Their tools, their hands, their feet
their hearts, their gifts, their freedom,
their time,
moving with one direction
a fluid body of love
claiming a revelation
calling, shouting a welcome
towards the chained slaves
Dancing, praising, talking, praying,
God’s bride
storming the gates of hell
with the keys
won in the resurrection
Victory from the grave.

And freedom’s choice
comes to the chained,
release to the city
release to the land
glory shining
through liberated faces,
Freed to Christ’s love
One by one.

Starting Thoughts: From a picture in my mind of God's love for those who do not live in His purpose for them, knowing His love. We are called to love them into relationship with God and the body of Christ - the church.
