hearing God's promise #2 (matthew 4:5-7)

who
could possibly overlook
such a big chance?
a once-in-a-lifetime chance
to be noticed?

the tempter always knew
how
to cut corners...
to get what he
wanted.

he tried to help You
learn
the same lesson he'd taught
adam
&
eve.

he did not understand
one
very important thing about
You...
after 40 days of hanging out
with YaHWeH's Spirit,
testing God was the
LAST
thing you would want to do.

ever.

instead You waited on YaHWeH
one more time
to speak with You.

His words are
Life.
everything else is
less.

I just now stumbled across your blog (I can't remember how) but I wanted to pop in and say that I'm enjoying reading your poems. This one in particular is very powerful. Thank you for sharing!
