..........Wurmbrand’s poem for Jesus pp.67,68 <br /> <br />“Doesn’t matter whether ‘tis right to love Thee, <br />Lord Jesus, I don’t love to obtain salvation, I <br />shall love You in everlasting pain, consuming <br />fire, burning cold <br /> <br />Had you refused to descend unto us, You would <br />have been my special dream, if Your Word never <br />reached me, I would have given You love <br />without it <br /> <br />If You fled from the cross, I would love You, if I <br />found sin in You, my love would cover it, if the <br />prophets predicted another Lord, I would <br />leave them <br /> <br />To cling unto You, even if they produced a thousand <br />proofs against Your existence, I shall always love <br />You, If you are a myth, I shall leave reality and live <br />in a dream of You <br /> <br />If they brought final proof that you don’t exist, my love <br />would resurrect You – my love is senseless, eternal, <br />untouchable, as is the love You have for me.” <br /> <br />On completing the poem, Wurmbrand was free from <br />oppression, he felt the kiss of Jesus, quiet and joy <br />returned to his cell <br /> <br />I shall leave materialism and live in the myth of spiritual <br />love, scorning a thousand proofs against the <br />supernatural, based on my admiration for <br /> <br />Wurmbrand’s explanation of unconditional love, <br />living a quantum vision…. <br /> <br />Richard Wurmbrand “In God’s Underground” edited by Charles Foley, <br />Garden City Press,1968, paraphrased from pp.67,68<br /><br />Margaret Alice<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-you-are-a-myth/
