what is a human
in fallen state?
i was a grub
i won't debate!
no, i was of
quite low estate
heading for
an awful fate!
but Jesus in me
made me great!

:@@@

i felt a twinge
i felt an itch
the urge for growth
inside did twitch
i had to morph
i turned the switch

===

i changed inside
of my cocoon
but only after
the worm's doom
i split my skin
to make the room
it was painful
i met my tomb
but i knew joy
was coming soon!

{>¡<}

joy!
my butterfly
spread her wings!
we'd encountered
painful things
sometimes the hurt
still clutches - clings
but the Spirit
Jesus brings
and so my soul
with dancing

SINGS!

I'm very sad on this day. 9/11 is a day of Sorrow for many people. But we must all remember that it takes pain to morph from grub to butterfly. In the United States the pursuit of happiness is an obsession. But it is not biblical. We are not promised happiness in this life. But with Jesus Christ we can find joy! I have written about this before. This is my Recipe for Joy:

*J*ESUS first
      *O*thers second
  *Y*ourself last
