Jesus stories (Vol 3 No 43)


We have wisdom from past sages

Told in stories as a guide;

Gospel writers told such stories

Decades after Jesus died.

 

In some stories there is conflict;

Others tell of love and care;

Some have gospel writers’ comments

Meanings Jesus may not share.

 

Kingdom stories told by Jesus

Were of ‘lost’ and ‘outcasts’ found;

Stories of God’s reign of justice;

Stories of God’s love profound.

 

When we hear these stories telling

Of forgiveness, costly care,

They will comfort and engage us;

Jesus’ teachings - surely there.

 

These are stories with the Good News

Of a love that knows no end;

We are challenged  to be partner,

Spreading love to foe and friend.
