Dear Lamb of God, 

You are the still quiet voice in each of us. 

     This earth we walk has deceitful stony paths. We stumble and fall; the stones like teeth bite into our very hearts.  Your hand stretches out to us and You set our feet on solid ground.   For You are the are the Lamb of God.

   Crevices stretch wide. They are on the path.   Thoughtlessly, we walk many times without seeing them. We fall into the pitiless darkness. You reach down to pull us out. For You are the Lamb of God.

       Winds may sweep us up far beyond the sight of you. Puffed up and riding high on pride, we cannot know You. By grace, Your mighty hands still the winds to a whipper and a sigh.  For you are the Lamb of God.

    Our debt to you is unimaginable. You created humankind as conscious beings. We have the gift of free choice. The way of Christ or the way of the world. You prayed for us. You wept for us and ultimately You went to the Cross for us. You paid the price for the steps we took on the scheming paths of the world.

    Humankind can never cancel our debt to You. Yet, we can renew our vows to walk in Your ways of love.

        For You are the Lamb of God.

Rejoice in the Lord always…again I say rejoice
