EMMAUS 2

Here’s a second sonnet about the road to Emmaus by Malcolm Guite. Spend some time with these few poetic verses. Read them out loud a few times. Sit with them in silence. Then pick the one verse that strikes you the most and carry it with you through the day,

Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? - Luke 24:25-26 

We thought that everything was lost and gone, Disaster on disaster overtook us The night we left our Jesus all alone And we were scattered, and our faith forsook us. But oh that foul Friday proved far worse, For we had hoped that he had been the one, Till crucifixion proved he was a curse, And on the cross our hopes were all undone.

Oh foolish foolish heart why do you grieve? Here is good news and comfort to your soul: Open your mind to scripture and believe He bore the curse for you to make you whole The living God was numbered with the dead That He might bring you Life in broken bread.
