(The person named Love in this poem is Jesus)
Love said to me; "Be transparent for Me,
Live a life of My transparancy
For with this style, you are a witness,
My glow will sparkle from you."
From me, "Oh! I wish I could,
But how could I survive?
Don't you see; my sins I must hide,
Let others see, Oh, no!
My human nature says; hide in my house,
Hide in my clothes and speech."
Love says, "Know you not,
On the cross before all,
I was naked, whipped and left to die,
How transparent is that?
Can you not be
As transparent
as I?
Remember it
is my spiritual nature
That will glow,
Not your
human nature."
From me, "Oh, show me
The way to sparkle
A transparent
beacon for you to others."
