Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

At that moment, that instant,
coming up out of the water,
a new life, in the Spirit
transformed, in that instant
the unknown man, walking through life
suddenly the Son of God, acknowledged,
anointed, commissioned for his ministry
His journey no longer anonymous, unheralded
now his steps chronicled for all time
his days numbers, his steps recorded
His ministry, his purpose ready, waiting
calling him, to that desert time
that chastening, that testing
a new life, walking as God on earth
Emmanuel, coming out of the shadows
beginning his ministry
to save us all
