"Three Layers" [Module#395] (John 14:1)
In passages the likes of this,
Three layers seen – it’s hard to miss –
“You trust in God” – the Father which
In heaven is – first layer this.“Trust in me too” – that’s layer two –
The Kingdom layer – to me so new,
For Christ was made Lord of this layer;
God’s Kingdom where we’re Kingdom-players.And then the layer where He spoke,
Apostles lived – when He awoke
He would indeed collect them up,
And to the Kingdom-layer look.A place prepared on layer two
For us to grow not be abused
By blocks thrown up by worldly folk;
Where we could stand once we awoke.From layer two we live our lives,
Address the needs of husbands, wives,
And kids, communities of life –
There dis-connect from worldly strife.Then in a grown obedience,
Do this and that in happenstance,
Amongst the lives of those on earth
Preferring first to second birth.But overall enrich we can
The lives lived out by fellow man;
What freedom Kingdom-life brings here,
That we might live by light so clear.Thanks Lord for this.
