Three crosses
Shaheen P Parshad
Three
crosses stood before me,
All the same
in shape and size;
And yet
something was different,
If you
saw with spiritual eyes.
One spelt
REBELLION,
That I
could identify with;
As I bore
its flame
That
leads to eternal death.
The
second - REPENTENCE,
A
contrite sinner’s need,
I nail my
sins to it,
As I
forgiveness plead.
The third
offered REDEMPTION,
That
leads to eternal life;
Jesus purges
all my sin,
And ends
my mortal strife.
I was to
choose just one,
What
choice should I make?
If you
were in my place,
Which one
would you take?
Between
pride’s blaze and grace’s calm tide,
I choose
the cross that stands on love’s side.
Redemption’s
light shatters every chain,
Gifting
life beyond the night’s refrain.
