The beginning …
Of a new heaven and new earth
Of life on earth
Of creation, amazing and wonderful
Of man, God’s masterpiece
Of woman, the man’s perfect companion
Of a divine friendship
Of sin through deception
Of death
The end, of peace and daily visitations from a Precious Friend

The beginning…
Of God’s pursuance of restoration
Of preparation for eternal salvation
Of seeking a lineage of faithful people, to pave the path for God’s Son Jesus Christ.
The end, of hopeless living as faith within bold hearts is stirred.

The beginning…
Of laws and standards
Of the introduction to the great ‘I AM’
Of miraculous interventions over a chosen group
Of a new friendship
Of prosperity through trials
The end, of slavery.

The beginning…
Of a period of silence as heaven prepares to sow its Most Precious Seed
The end, of dark times, for the Son is about to arrive.

The beginning…
Of heralding a New King
Of the 1st coming of the Messiah to save ALL
Of Good News to mankind
Of introduction to a personal God
Of individual miracles as well as in groups
The end, of doubts and fear, proven in signs and wonders.

The beginning …
Of false accusations
Of jealousy and hypocrisy
Of an attempt to shut the voice of truth
Of the last blood sacrifice
The end, of all sacrifices for sin, by the one perfect sacrifice forever.

The beginning …
Of the immense power of resurrection
Of the ascension of the last sin sacrifice
Of the descent of the most Holy Spirit
Of the power of immortal God at work through mere mortals
The end, of physical and spiritual bondages, through the work of the Holy Spirit.

The beginning…
Of ecclesia
Of a gathering of believers, Jews and Gentiles
Of the Kingdom of heaven forcefully advancing
Of souls in massive numbers snatched from the devil’s hands
Of the hope of eternal salvation
Of the Good News spread abroad
The end, of the power of eternal death.

The beginning…
Of the gathering of God’s people in Israel
Of the gathering of God’s people through rapture
Of the second coming
Of intensity of battle on the spiritual battleground
Of the eternal end to the cycle of sin and death
The end, to satan’s rule

The beginning…
Of the new heavens and a new earth
Of life come full circle
Of the end of all sorrow, tears and pain
Of the Precious Friend now not visiting, but dwelling amidst His people
This is the beginning that will never end.

Amen.

I appreciate how you developed your theme through this poem. Your use of repetition made in flow. This may be the end, but there is always a new beginning. Nice!

Hi Karuna. I’m running a little late this week, but just wanted to leave a quick note to congratulate you on your 2nd place win in Level 2, and to also let you know you did very well overall as well, ranking 37th out of all entries for the week.

It was a big week of entries, so you really did well. If you would like to see the highest rankings for yourself, you can find them here:
