Description

Alex Burrows took the photo that I painted in an impressionist style of children coming down steps to the clinic at Santa Lastenias, Matagalpa, Nicaragua, Central America. The garden in in full bloom with tropical flowers and foliage, the forest is blue-green in the background. Blue forget-me-nots are in the front. The first little girl is dressed in her best pink party dress, worn out from use, but still making her feel like a beloved princess. I wrote the following poem...........................................................SALTY COMMUNION
Jesus Speaks to my heart:

I am walking in the Garden with you right now �
even as you are still before Me,
thoughts and worries put aside,
ears and heart attuned to hear My voice.

The pain and tears will pass,
not in oblivion, but in My healing grasp.
Not one drop of salt will splatter
unnoticed, ignored, disregarded.
For all that wounds you has already
also wounded Me.

Only I hold time in My hands,
to cure, with saltiness, the wounded flesh.
Only I offer the invitation to the banquet,
where the food prepared is love,
with reconciliation �
How sweet it will taste.
How nourishing and satisfying,
Proof that I knew best.

Your heart will sing, so sing now!
Your mind will rest, so rest now!
from carrying those longings
and heavy worries.
Your feet will dance in purest delight,
in worship holy,
so dance with Me now
in the midst of the fires
and BE YE NOT BURNED.

�For it was the Father�s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross�in order to present you before Him holy and blameless�� Colossians 1:20-22
