Passover-First Fruits-Easter

On this ‘Feast of First Fruits’
A burnt and grain offering
Foreshadowing Messiah
And His people, following.

Pesach-Passover…Exodus

How God frees from bondage
All those, captive to sin
Jesus’ blood, our atonement
To cleanse of leaven, within.

My People

Though God has chastised
They faced every threat
But His Covenant people
He does not forget.

My Jewish Background

Grew up with tradition
Lived under the Law
Rabbinical Judaism, Yiddish
Was the life that I saw.

Modern Israel

Scattered, through sin
The scriptures foretold
Now fulfilling prophesy
God’s Word of old.

                                   

Messianic Judaism                                        

Reconciled thro’ His death
To God, in one body
Fulfilling God’s Law
A new covenant, to embody.
                                   

Holy Garments-Holy Lives?

Consecrated, sanctified
Drawing nigh, to God’s altar
Yet seems, we come flippant
Should our approach, alter?

A Little Leaven

So, wait upon God
Lord, show me the leaven
To purge, make me pure
On earth, as in heaven.
