"'The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, and that the time of the Lord's favor has come.' He (Jesus, the One who was anointed to accomplish all this) rolled up the scroll..... Then he began to speak to them. 'The scripture you've just heard has been fulfilled this very day!'" Luke 4:18 - 20

Poured Out

Poured out upon the alter,
He bridges time and space
His blood between the cherubs –
The embodiment of grace

Never does he falter
Though with pain and sorrow sighs
One hand in God’s, one hand in mine,
Triumphantly he dies

Mortality’s undoing -
Adam’s life is spilled.
He, draped across the mercy seat,
All righteousness fulfilled.
