Beautiful Dust

"Somewhere in my dust heap there's a richness." – John Steinbeck

The King’s Observation

Mark 12:35-44

[fragmentation]

Careful craving for admiration

Honor at all costs. 

Hypocritical heart entangled

In an identity of elevation. 

You matter

Stripped of secular significance

You matter. 

[wholeness]

Behold the sacrificial heart

More blessed by giving

What only the Father sees,

Beholding the risen King. 

You matter.

Enfolded into life with the living Son of David,

It is enough to be wholly in him.
