Matrix Moments

Peace that flows inside out
Cascading into my heart
A Love that creates vulnerability
Sees my flawless
beyond my flaws,
A Love with the unending
persistent
effervescent flow
of heaven,
intimate Love from an
lover who creates destiny,

I am a child of God
I Know it!
I Love it!
I Live it!

What was the reason
you were made?

Starting Thoughts: The love that sees us as flawless, that goes beyond forgiving to see us reborn!

Early dawn’s golden light
seeps through Galilee hills
night's shadows washing
colour into bushes,
Lake washes
gentle to the white stoned shore,
morning embers
dance red on cloud's edges,
morning embers
glow red
in the fire
surrounded by stones,
fish cooking,
disciples relaxing,
in wonderment of 
encountering Jesus.

"Peter, Come walk with me”
Jesus unlimbers
from the fire companionship
walking with Peter
across the beach
stones and sand
into a personal experience
deep and tough,
Jesus stops
looking into Peter’s eyes
lifting his hand to Peter's shoulder
asking the past into Peter’s mind

“Do you love me?”
“Do you love me?”
“Do you love me?”

and years of discipleship
three cock crows
hiding in the dark
fears of past weeks
joy of the last minutes 
with Jesus lakeside;
All collapse swirling in Peter’s mind.

And in dawn’s warmth
the beach pebbles smile
and turn their faces
to the sun,
even they cry out ‘God',
and Peter’s soul
Softens, releases
the same chord
of love in his heart,
a love covering all times
a love permeating all of him
soaking passion into Peter’s mind,

“Jesus, you know I love you."

Starting Thoughts: From betrayal to love, from darkness to sunrise, from feeling a failure to becoming a rock that faith will spread and be built on. Peter responds to the question on the shore of Lake Galillee.

How we play
Ignoring questions
ignoring the gaps
Turning on
Noise and screens,
For our focus -
Odds on favorite -
is Pleasure.

Power, position, possessions
The plays of life
Days of life
Chasing the cursed dream
we catch it, rich cream
temporary fulfilment,
and it dries
ashes in the mouth,
Death a taste away,
Chasing the cash crop
why would I stop?
Spinning into nothing
is what I am avoiding,
The void always
apparent beneath my feet,
Running fast enough
so the vortex
will not suck me in
for I have made myself God.

If I died tomorrow,
was it all just random...
Or will I meet Jesus?

Starting Thoughts: We chase stuff! Not quite like a dog chasing a car but we tend to focus on money, status, pleasure, sex, work and in the end I wonder what we have achieved. Christians are not immune either, when we take our focus of God and relationship with him we can be running to catch-up with our image of God.
