"An house not made with hands"

II Corinthians 5:1

MARGARET M. LAUDER

I am not the house I seem to live in ....
Am I condemned to death and dust
As claimed by mankind's earthly vision?

The Word I hear breaks soft but clear—
Sweet silent utterance of Truth
That wipes away the dreams of fear:

"You are the handiwork of Mind,
Your being never doomed to dust.
You're God's reflection, Love-defined.

"Your house is Mind, 'not made with hands.'
You're not deceived by fleshly mold
When reconciled to Christ's commands."
