Walking with them
on the Emmaus road
this week after Easter
the same doubts, the same
lack of understanding, true awareness
But able, with them, like them
to walk with Christ
To study, to learn, to listen to the prophesies
the words of old fulfilled
his life, his ministry,
his suffering and his dying
all foretold, all part of the Master’s plan
And, yes, his resurrection, the forgiveness of our sins
reconciliation, communion with the creator
that too foretold, fulfilled in the risen Lord
walking with us on that Emmaus road
that road home, that journey of life
