“I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and anyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” – Jn 11:25-26

ever since i found you again
my life is no longer my own
the job that i work at all day
is not of my choosing but a gift
the work of your hand
the car that i drive to work
is not of my choosing but a gift
more work of your hand
the clothes that i wear to work
is not of my choosing but more gifts
the work of your helping hands

amen, amen i say to you
i believe you are the resurrection
it matters not whether i live or die
this life i live is not my own
the only thing that matters is
that i choose to accept your love
i lay my old self to sleep each night
and each morning a new self awakes
with more of your love and your essence
i rise to live joyfully
this life of yours and mine
