Delectable Dialogues From A Dented Soul



Delectable dialogues from a dented soul… are we destined?
Distancing ourselves drowns dashed dreams.
Do we disconnect when we need it most?

Discover the depths of your soul and you’ll find your dents too.
Dare we continue with the D’s?
I’d get a D on this one for sure!

Grades, thank God, will be left on this Earth.
For now we are in the midst of a struggle beyond measure.
But we like the measure.

We want to measure everything and everyone.
We want to find where we measure up, yes up!
Who am I better than? (Who or whom I don't know: help!)
Who am I smarter than?
And get this one, whom am I more righteous than?

Do we really think we are more righteous than another?
Do we even remember the Law?
Most of what we do today would be our death sentence.
What?

You heard me right, though I’m not going to recite the Law.
My dented soul would suffer some more, all the rules I broke, broke me!
Why do that when Christ suffered just for me?
Why?

Questions and quirks still run through my mind.
They are deep and laborious while shallow and hollow.
Would I dare go and trample sacred ground?
Will I?

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.”

Roman 8:1-2 NIV
