“He does not heal at all” is my big stick.
My God, my God, my biggest fear is that
You might abandon me (as Jesus cried*!)
He faced that fear himself, and though not glad,
expected to be answered - other side…
and did not flinch at the experience,
but let that Psalmist* speak for him as well
as of his own life, and it's weary-ance
(not “Ev’ry day feels further from the Hell…”
… we brought into the world with choosing snake
as mentor, just because he could be seen
(no questions still remained, that then could make
us humble and still learning inbetween.)
But God, on other hand does not appear
so, always showing self to outside eyes,
or even heard (by us) with outside ears.
He looked through metaphore, did not despise
the lowly physical, but vaunted it:
his own ident’fication “Son of Man”
or “Son of Adam” - spirit haunted it
as weak, or immature, a leader - banned
from Garden of delights, with God - on Earth.
I s'pose those kids* had felt abandoned there,
as Cain accuses God’s discipline, worth
those words “My punishment's too much to bear*.”
And God, as gracious Father, stigmatized
as never wanting to provide or give
mentoring to his children, dramatized
in parables, and ev’ry day he’d live:
“If you have ears to hear, then use them now*” ..
..(& hear the deeper meaning underneath!)
“Don’t you have eyes to see*?” He said, somehow
entrusting wisdom that just God bequeathed.
This second “Son of Adam”⁶, unlike Cain,
a murderer from jealousy and pride,
was murdered as those motives lived again,
and showed another way than “run & hide””.
He trusted discipline of God as good,
and not “too much to bear” (unless alone)
and as was said by Jesus, he “could
do nothing by himself*” - he will atone!
