IF JESUS WAS A HUSBAND

If Jesus was a husband,
If Jesus had a wife—
Would we say marriage was difficult,
Or would it be heaven on earth?

All the warnings about marriage,
All the quotes that give you pause.
I've seen my fair share of them,
Even the Bible gives you one!

They say tolerance is key 
To a lasting marriage,
That love dies along the way,
I say, what a tragedy of sorts...

So I wonder to myself,
If we had two people loving up like Christ,
Living up like Christ,
Would we still have the same challenge?

For I couldn't help but think —
If Jesus was a husband,
If Jesus had a wife—
Would we say marriage was difficult,
Or would it be heaven on earth?

    This is an excellent question. Maybe we'd have a better model that the ones we have. Though I feel some marriages are worth emulating.

      Truly.. again I wonder. We're flawed individuals, how then can we make a perfect couple?

THE SONG OF TES

 Dear woman with a beautiful soul What is it that ails you so? I've searched for you in far places Are you passing through some difficult stages? She said: It's a long story I hardly can tell But the road is long, said I, please do tell Last time I saw you, I could tell There was something wrong, so pray tell And she uttered to me a parable You see, I went hunting with a friend To better our chances, we hunted the same Indeed, we were fair hunters of game. But things took a turn for the worse I thought we were friends, whatever that was She left the hunt and turned on me Left the hunt and turned on me Took the gun and turned on me Used as bait, she turned on me I became the hunted, it dawned on me.. My heart was full, it nearly burst! My soul was grieved, it nearly burst! Overflowing with pain, I nearly burst! So I stayed away from Mount Zion Finding solace in a dark room God sees my heart, he knows I'm mad I'll stay away, my heart is bad. And I stayed away for two whol...

A PLACE

We all need a place, where we can be less perfect  Bottle our insecurities, and let it out in private Dine with our doubts and pick bones with faith It can be a person, it can be a place  It can be something we'll never do again. It could be healing, it could be coping  It could be something to help you keep moving  Life is a lesson, and people are blankets  Life is transient, and memories are strength Life is transient, and memories are strength. Like a plastic bag I kept some messy things  On the outside, it was fine But inside was less pleasant  Messy, not dirty, but serving a purpose  To keep my environment clean And help arrange my thoughts as I cleaned: Resented the baggage, but it grew on me And I came to realize its usefulness  We all need a place we can be less perfect  To figure out our weaknesses or find our strengths—   It's okay if we're lonely along the way  Or weak by ourselves when we can't find help Life is a l...
