‘And the two shall become one flesh…Christ and the Church’ – 2

What inter-twining of realities
that we should be in Him,
and He in us:
‘this is my body’ now
says He
of us:
‘this is my body’ now
say We
of Him
who walked the roads of
Nazareth
and now;

the two became one flesh
upon a cross, and since-
and now He’s risen, victor, glorified,
we are with him,-
for in this too we say
‘this is my body’ where the two
become a flooded flesh, one flesh,
Christ and the Church.

We eat because we are,- all One, with Him.

(Ephesians 5:31-32)
(Sunday Readings August 25/26:2000 )
