Elegy For B (Deceased July, 1999) And C (Who Still Loves Him)
[after Matthew 7:1; Mark 11:26; Colossians 3:13; John 5:22]
Having made waste of much of life and many hours,
so that I craved and needed Christ's gracious Salvation,
I have in His Kingdom neither neither right nor vocation
to question your relationship nor to begrudge
you the delights and comforts of blooming romance---
not in this world and not in any circumstance.
Our Lord does not save us for this, nor give permision
to such: in fact, it is a negative condition
He states, upon my own forgiveness in good standing;
regardless of some others' self-righteous demanding.
The consequence I leave to my Savior's decision;
nor has he delegated to me His own powers
of judgment, nor named me as His assistant judge.
My own life still requires my focused concentration.
Starward
