"Leona's Book" [Reflections On Book Powerlines by Leona Frances Choy - Overall Book , 25/25]
Leona Choy, who wrote this book for us,
Has introduced some themes of Spirit’s touch
As we mature in Christ’s photography
That’s carried out in light of what we see.I read three times (at least) as years went by,
Each time in ways held up before my eyes
Which I could hear – lives of some other men
And women – bidding me, “Begin again”.First time (I think) was in the heat of war,
As town collapsed, old life as lived before
No longer worked, as agri-business crashed;
“Feed feeders, Stu” emerged as needed task.Next time (01) – I’d started MRD
To learn the score, see what was there to see,
That feeding task of front-line clergy staff
Might helpful be – thus do as Spirit asked.Third time emerged – “Discernment is your gift
I think, my friend, through you the Spirit lifts
Us clergy-folks – thus raising better ways
Of doing life – hear what the Spirit says.”And now, this new distinction has emerged
For “Works of Power” just works – and I observed
In books I wrote my people don’t do that –
Which means for me – discernment’s where it’s at –I needed talk – to learn what was the score
In people’s lives when blocked, could do no more;
Then through that scene watched Spirit blow a hole
So they escape, and into freedom go.My task now shifts, as photos focus take,
That Spirit’s flow through pictures I create
In Him might heal, set free in Jubilee –
These poems help upcoming process see.Thanks Lord for this.
