To Life

Under the canopy He stands and waits
The Lord, great and mighty…
Anticipating her arrival…
Five maidens come singing and dancing,
Preparing the way, as the crowd watches in awe.

 

Banners raised! Shouts of praise!
They watch, the bride approach, in all her glory and splendor…
Tiny pearls of opal, glisten, upon her gown, pure and white
Her skin perfumed in pomegranate and frankincense,
Lilies of the Valley crown her head and vail…
With humility and great joy, she approaches…
Finally, the day is here!
She stands before her beloved, two hearts, become one…
Overcome with the song of the turtle dove,
“Our wait is over!”
All that love him, witness the promise of God!
Mazel tov!
To Life!

“Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints” (Rev. 19:7,8).
Pomegranates represent abundance, fertility, hope, and resurrection, making them symbols of new beginnings and spiritual growth.
Frankincense oil is used in meditation, prayer, and other spiritual practices to promote calmness, clarity, and connection with the divine.
Using both pomegranates and frankincense oil in rituals or practices can symbolize the shedding of old patterns and the embracing of new beginnings.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
