From One to the Other - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

God’s purpose being worked out
the prophecies alive
in that moment
when God spoke
the descending of the dove

The mantle handed
from one to the other
the preparation transitioned
to the One who was foretold

We must be baptized
washed clean by our repentance
but John’s words are true
we truly need Jesus

He is the one
given power from above
God’s Spirit upon Him
to set our spirits free

In that moment in the river
God claimed His Son
setting Him on the journey
that would lead Him to the cross
