Light waves reflect from the surface of my skin. I know where I am, but I don’t know where I’ve been. The rush of electricity feels foreign to my dismal way of thinking. Perhaps I am meant to be grounded. I twist the dial once more to my left. The picture changes. I see my variant laughing on the side of the highway looking for a ride east. He’s alone, but happier than I am now. The dial twists again. This time I am surrounded in tapestries of wool– a castle of old with a man of new. The grim taste of earth lines my lips and I am somewhat taken back to a time long before I existed. Both images petrify me. I hoped things would be different, but– in some way beyond my comprehension, they are just the way they’re meant to be. I cannot change what is down the road from me, no matter how many times I turn the dial, my path is set in concrete.

defeated, lost
hidden from help
the light entered
proclaiming a Victory
Jesus Christ has come
to save us all!
He did what they said he
could not.
Salvation.
Freedom.
Peace.
Praise be to the name of
Jesus Christ.
Amen.
i will never forget
the message,
your mission,
your sacrifice.
i am born again,
made anew
in the blood of Christ.
Hallelujah.
a fallen world
lead by the flesh
a savior was needed
to save us all.
Innocent
Sinless
Son of God
He came to carry
the
Burden.
Betrayed by flesh,
it was finished.
Set on the cross,
in our place.
Jesus’s Blood
paid the price.
Jesus, my savior
my protector
my defender
my redeemer
I thank you.
