Written by Stephen Matthew Pruitt
before the world began
Manifest in time

God spoke a word; the world was formed
He breathed a new creation
When he had finished all his work
He gazed in jubilation
God sent his Word into the world
The firstborn of creation
With his last breath his work was done
The joy of his salvation
Genesis 1:1, 9, 31; John 1:1, 14; Colossians 1:15; John 19:30; Revelation 3:14; Psalms 51:12, 35:9; Isaiah 53:10

His love will never falter
Psalms 37:24, 145:14; Philippians 2:13; Romans 8:28, 39; 2 Thessalonians 3:3

He put another parable before them, saying, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, but while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.” Matthew 13:24-25 (ESV)
My dad did not outwardly appear to be a very spiritual man. However, on one occasion he conveyed to me a very powerful spiritual reality. As the day drew near for me to be baptized and officially join the church, he stopped me one day in our dining room and asked if I understood what I was doing. I assured him that I did.
