Haiku responding to Hebrews 12:18-29
It is diff'rent now,
not like in the past, with God
clothed in fire and smoke.
Trembling and awe,
encountering God with fear;
that's how it once was.
You who are in Christ
meet the living God with joy
and great festival.
We come to Jesus,
who forged the new covenant
between us and God.
Do not refuse him
when he speaks words of freedom,
accept his life-gift.
God speaks: creation
trembles. Earthly things will pass;
those from God remain.
God's promised kingdom
cannot be shaken. It's ours;
God's gift. Be thankful.
Showing gratitude,
we bring our worship to God,
along with our lives.
