ELOHIM

An Acrostic

of

E L O H I M

A Name of God

meaning

All Powerful One, Creator

E

Everything that moves, on earth, in water and in sky,

Elegantly proclaiming the awesome glory of God on high

Eyes lifting to heavenly realms where

crimson, saffron, and indigo colors delight

Everywhere in splendor as the sun sets low giving me

the inky black and star studded night for a respite.

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator

From the mysteries of the Hubble photos to the magnificence

of deep sea creatures hidden through the ages but revealed in my time

You bless me with your resplendent world.

L

Lord and Master of the cosmos You created and detailed in wonder

Lovingly You brought it forth with flashes of light and crashes of thunder

Looking forward to forming Your children from all eternity;

creating them for fellowship with You.

Leading me on to know Your love, by my side,

guiding me to grow in wisdom

and virtue

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator

Creator of your wondrous universe and of those

You made in Your image and likeness.

O

Oh Lord, what did I do to merit such an astronomical reward

and extraordinary regard

Of you obliterating from Your memory that I am sinful and quite scarred

Overlaying my repented wickedness with your boundless sensibility and

limitless tenderness of action

Opening the way to help me prepare and inviting me to live

with You in your eternal heavenly mansion.

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator,

You gave your Son to live on earth to guide, to teach,

 and to offer me salvation.

H

Hearing my cries to You, oh God, You show me how to hearken to your voice

Helping me to grow in the ways of Your love, I choose

and in you I will always rejoice

Hope is the gift You have provided me which empowers my faith

 in things dreamed of but still unseen

Healing my despair and giving me boldness to expect, that the day when my

my time to become truly eternal will at last convene.

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator,

You prepare a place for me to joyfully live

with You in perpetuity.

I

Infinite, immeasurable, inestimable, demonstrating glory beyond

 my ability to to have comprehended.

Immensity of your love and generosity such that any understanding

that I might have, in heaven finally will be mended

Injustice happens, and though I wonder why, I know that my promise is not

earthly, it will be part of my future guaranteed assurance

I will be with you forever in the heavenly gardens
filled with Your sweet fragrance.

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator,

You are beyond my ability to grasp, which gives me such love

as with my limited human ability I can achieve.

 

M

Maker of all that is good, filled with kindness, and a desire for blessing me

Madness is in this world, but You have given me tools

to overcome it and a heightened ability

Magnanimous is a pale word to describe all that You do for me

and for all Your children to come to that magnetic

Moment when we will arrive at your celestial gates because with your

support we will have won all our earthly combats.

ELOHIM,

All powerful One, Creator,

I wait down here on earth for the day when I will meet You

face to face and sing Your praises with fellow citizens of paradise.
