True Self
Pithy personality,
rich fullness fills the inner realm, being brims lapping.
Brittle ego continues
to control, to maintain appearances, society capping.
Content created by
Word Made Flesh brings paradox to its full, magisterial height.
Creator
of All infuses health, wholeness, sends falsehood in flight.
No need to masque the
reality, more effectively claim one’s being.
Keeper of All lays
out the fullness of each created one, sending Satan fleeing.
Baptized into Christ
Jesus, one becomes a child of the Most High.
Forever the path
clear, living with eternal hope, a promise ever nigh.
Our world loves the superficiality
of competition, appearances photo-shopped.
Pasted smiles,
condescending poses, pretentious resume’s, unappealing views cropped.
Spirit smiles with
fulsome grace, filling Creator’s beloved with a joyous mirth.
They hold all
imaginable skill, ability, possibility from their moment of birth.
Transparency,
congruency, integrity, completeness only Keeper of All can maintain.
Our daily task to
bring forth the caring person who can all hiddenness disdain.
Blessed the person
who lives in the presence of the Almighty, fully experiencing love;
No innate capacity
exists to be complete, ‘tis a gift including angels from above.
Word Become Flesh
demonstrates the process by which incarnation works.
Natural processes
bring miracles daily in a fecund flowing way, no flailing jerks.
From squalling little
babe to curious boy to working carpenter in the shop,
Jesus of Nazareth
grew in preparation for His Savior-hood, nothing could stop.
Each of us, a unique
contribution, no one else can occupy our role.
We bring God
Almighty’s plan, from the essence of each soul.
History documents the
story, this magnificent tale, God’s drama.
No erasures, no
missteps final, no false outcomes, down to the comma.
Honest introspection,
dialogue probes to the core, examine each aspect real.
Our lives bring a
working laboratory; we, the very players in life’s big deal.
Look into the mirror
of God’s Word, let Spirit cleanse the understanding lens.
Boldly bring out the
truth within you, your effort will truth cleanse.
Supple the boundaries
of life, beautiful the creation God has made.
Bring your best
effort to the day; know it contains bright light, soft shade.
Yourself, God’s great
gift to you, your self-expression states God’s truth.
With passionate
devotion let out the wonder felt, hide it not in ego’s little booth.
The Rev. Ronald Allen Melver, M.Div.
