A new day

There was never a day like this. 
For an instant,
Even heaven was silent.
The angels,
Caught mid flight,
In wonder and awe.
The universe
Shuddered,
Constellations,
Planets,
The seen and the unseen,
All things,
flooded by
Glory.
Everything that was ever written,
Every word,
Every thought,
All reason became inadequate.
In an eternal moment,
God defined himself
In the greatest outpouring of power
And humility.
On that morning,
Love flooded all creation,
Life burst out of death,
Light out of darkness,
Hope from hopelessness,
And grace forever was enthroned
Over mankind's brokeness and failures.
The separated were embraced,
And bloodstained nails
And a Roman sword,
Became emblems
Of overwhelming forgiveness.
The evil depths of the darkest heart,
Was met with God's overwhelming desire,
To restore and reconcile.
Mercy triumphed,
Hope rose,
Brighter than a million suns
And the throne of magesty and awe
Became a resting place
For all.
