The open curtain

After Hebrews 10:12-25 

The curtain opens,

no longer veiled,

no longer a barrier,

it opens to the holy places

previously unapproachable.

Now we draw near

with a true heart.

Now we draw near

with full assurance.

Now we draw near

with a clean heart.

Now we hold fast

to the promise of faith.

Now we encourage

one another to do good.

Now we walk forward

together, as the One

has made us.
