Things are different, now.

 

Haiku responding to Colossians 3: 1-11


You've been raised with Christ;

seek the things that are above

with Christ, and with God.


Eschew earthly things.

Seek that which comes from above;

live your risen life.


End earthly desires;

sexual immorality,

evil passions, greed.


Rid yourself of wrath,

malice, anger, slander, and

language of abuse.


Always speak the truth.

You've been renewed, so reflect

the image of God.


No more Greek and Jew,

circumcised and not; slave, free;

Christ is all, in all.
