Is today the day of freedom

Of restoration and redemption

When hope is revived and renewed

The sunrise of a new season?

 

I feel the hint of glory

Wrapping its way around my heart

Calling me back home again

To pen and play songs of Story

 

Is today the day of jubilee

When all that’s wrong is made right

And forgiveness has its way?

“May it be today” is my plea

    Thank you for this, REbekah. This is *my* prayer today, too, as I struggle to write something, promised. May this be the day we both pick up our pens, and words of jubilee and jubliation and newness pour forth. Thank you for your hope and encouragement.
    Love

  2. I, too, long for this day. I’ve been toying with this notion of an “inaugurated-but-not-yet-consummated Jubilee.” Thinking of what my life would look like if I “acted as if” Jubilee is the ultimate reality in the here and now? This has turned me upside down in many ways. At any rate, thank you, Rebekah, for these powerful, penetrating words. I continue to be thankful for the poets among us, like you.
