The Trees That Talked



Standing in the mist of the trees that will be a Cross.
Jesus whispered it's time.
All the trees in the forest bowed.
But two trees He let stand for they were the ones.
Do not be afraid.
I will be with you when they come for you.
The trees stood still.
As Jesus walked toward the trees He touched all the bowed trees.
When He got to the two trees they felt the love of Their Master and Creator.
They felt His love for it was true love.
They knew His love for their roots was filled with it.
As Jesus walked through the forest His Light shined through the trees.
The who forest was brighten by His Light.
The bowed trees stood back up.
The trees saw the Cross on the hill.
They moved from side to side for they knew the pain of Their Creator.
In the mist of the trees Jesus told them all will be well.
The trees cover Jesus in their leaves as they bent over Him.
Under the trees only the Light of Jesus shined.
