I Spoke with the Rabbi

 I spoke with the Rabbi 2023-02-12  John 2-4

Honey, My love, I spoke with the Rabbi.
Spiritually begotten children can
Lift our eyes that we see that Son of Man.
I should be born again before I die.

Aside the well the Rabbi talked to me.
For that Messias that we've heard spoken of
Has come, He's here, my heart awoke with love.
He has living water, I do decree.

Born of the Spirit filled us to the brim.
The spirit lifts us without ev'n a crumb.
Life returned though almost gone is the sign.

Yes we can now see the wind yes it's him.
Our eyes and hearts are open with help from
Those miracles when turned water to wine.

Aside Jacob's well I feel strange
My soul parched crying out for change
Sip, Swig, Swallow living water    
my heart & mind follow order

Effects are felt, Yet no wind seen
Born of Spirit, actions are clean
Act on truth and come to the light
Your daily deeds from God made right

What Seek Ye?

 What seek ye? 2023-01-21 John 1

Th

e witness I heard that talked of the Light.

Which came to this world from which came the spark.

This Light was that Word from celestial height.

The teacher to bring us out of the dark.

Come my brother I have seen, I have heard

The Man he's called Jesus, Messiah he is.

You'll want to stay with him. It's much preferred.

Heaven will open and he's such the whiz.

Yep it's him in all fullness gained by grace.

See the Father declare him in his place.
