These classically structured sonnets present a sort of mini-commentary on a variety of biblical themes, themes which deal with all kinds of practical issues in life, but solidly built on unchanging doctrinal truths. They deal with the reality of life on this planet, and look at sin and its consequences-turmoil, judgement and eternal suffering, but also God's gracious offering of forgiveness and its consequences-peace, acceptance and eternal glory.They show God'simmutability and sovereignty, but also his grace and mercy.Above all else, Jesus is the central figure throughout these sonnets, that which ties all of them together to form one cohesive whole. The central theme is the grace of God offered through Jesus Christ for the redemption, salvation, and hope of eternal life for all who will trust in him.If you are a believer, these verses will convict you of indifference and wasted opportunities, but will also comfort you in your afflictions and increase your desire to live on a higher spiritual plane, making the days yet remaining to you count more for eternity. If you are searching for the truth, you will find many practical answers here, but above all, that Jesus is the only answer that you really need.One reading of these sonnets will not do. They are not Scripture, but are full of scriptural tenets, and in a similar manner that reading a biblical text will yield new insights with each reading, so each time you return to these sonnets, you will find more here to bless your soul than you did the time before.
