    Tears in Rain

    Psalm 45:1

    "My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer."

    Galatians 2:20

    I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

    In the Beginning. . .


    In the beginning was the Logos. And the Logos was set in motion creating all things seen and unseen. The Logos is the word and the word comes from the ultimate source of all things made and unmade. The Logos is Truth that comes from the source which all things were made and must return. The truth is the word and the word is conveyed in vast formations--plain and mysterious.

    The logos is a living entity and exists in all things. Yet all things come from the source: a single entity that binds and creates all things known and unknown.

    The Logos, the word, and the source are synonymous symbols by which Truth can be found. . .

    Through the word. . .

    Through light. . .

    Through sound. . .

    Through motion. . .

    The Logos set in motion creates all things seen and unseen; known and unknown; made and unmade.

    The Logos speaks this way so that you can better understand. . .

    To speak through metaphors can the Truth be inspired that then when the Truth finds you can the Logos be understood.

    Let the Logos speak.

    Let the people hear.

    Let the Truth find you.

    For the Truth cannot be found lest the Truth finds you first.

    Through the word, through light, through sound, and motion.

    John 1:1 (ESV)

    1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life,a and the life was the light of men. 5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

    "My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer."

    Stained Glass Without a Sun






    I am Stained with colours 
    I am Strained of Impurities 

    I am etched of poetry 
    I am drawn with delicacy 

    I am here where you can see
    I am drawn so you can understand

    My story

    My life 

    My past, present, and future. . .

    But today my stained colours are dim
    My impurities back again

    My poetry slacked 
    And drawn without tact 

    For who am I?

    To think I could shine brighter then any of you...

    I am here where you cannot see 
    I am drawn but you cannot understand

    My story

    My life

    My gifts, strengths, and dreams...

    I am stained glass without a sun

    To shine through me
    To shine for me
    To shine for you

    So we can see...

    The beautiful colours that are not made by me...

    But for us

    So we can see...

    Our story

    Our life

    Our hopes and dreams...

    Behold the curtains are drawn
    And we hide so ever shamefully 

    Take our stained glass, 
    Take our colours,
    Take...

    Our story

    Our life

    Our past, present, and future...

    Our hopes and dreams...

    And share it with the world

    For stained glass without a sun

    Cannot shine on it's own.

    Draw up the curtains

    And let the sun in.

    Glow bright, straight, and true

    for our colours are beautiful indeed.

    But I need a sun, as do we all

    For stained glass without a sun is dim indeed...

    Open up your curtains

    Let the sun shine through

    So our life, our story, our savior...

    Can come into.

    Our hearts

    Our minds

    Our souls

    For evermore...

    Amen.

    Matthew 5:14-16

    14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
