These Are My JOTtings, Part #2

Shakespearean Sonnet: "The Son Shines"

The sun will shine throughout each living day,
though earthly homes may not be blessed to see.
The lasting Flame is ever on display.
The Hand of God gives light to Earth so free.

The Son of God is shining evermore,
though souls of Earth may not yet see His Truth.
He daily shines as Life's most golden Door
to a-ged ones and hearts still in their youth.

A Son-filled home, new son now grows in bloom
beginning chapter for the Lord's Own Book.
A preacher, that the Lord now urges, "Groom!"
God's flame in future days will cause men look.

Though clouds may blank the sun, Whose Light now "gone"
remains as bright, until the Vict'ry's won.
