The Difference of A Heavenly Father
by Michael Doyle

Deep within the holy inference,
Meanings are held by deference.
Throughout all of human history,
Kings have added up to slavery.

But not so, in our father's kingdom.
Our heavenly king rules through freedom.
When the people forget and need to recall,
Leaders like Moses have preached God's law.

In Judaic history, we find a bloody monarchy,
As God's people have struggled in their history.
Conquered and embattled, Israel struggled for light,
Like a twisted blade at the edge of God's fight.

Until they were enslaved by Roman domination,
There was very little left of the Jewish nation.
All but destroyed by the wages of their sin, 
The Jews were certain that God would save them again.

A prophet speaking God's words, as it was told,
Would come as the Messiah to shepherd the fold.
This second Moses was born in Bethlehem to inspire.
Holiness was born at the edge of the Roman Empire.

As it was said in the Bible, it would be done.
Out of Egypt, God, the Father, would call His Son.
Sacred as the whisper heard from God's breath,
Moses and Jesus would come to escape their death.

Jesus and Moses ran Good's course side by side.
The parallels are amazing to try to coincide.
At a Mount that was not, Jesus taught us to pray,
Addressed to "Our Father: from that very day.

This Father was heaven-bent on finding freedom,
And delivering all believers into His kingdom.
Hope and deliverance were given by God to rescue,
Into the sacred hearts of every Christian and Jew.

Freedom came from the prophesied power of redemption,
Thought on by the disciples in their contemplation.
The strength of the woven threads was as inspirational,
As those who carried this truth are generational.
