Ultimate Being,
Spectacular Beyond,
you are
maybe
kinda
sorta
like the breath
that inflates my lungs
and reminds my body of peace.
Creative Animation,
Profound Revelation,
you are
maybe
kinda
sorta
like the tree
that extends beyond my vision
and reveals faithfulness that knows no time.
Delightful Abstract,
Surprising Particularity,
you are
maybe
kinda
sorta
like the smile
that renews my soul
and draws me beyond myself.
Love the “maybe, kinda, sorta” refrain Rachael! It allows for so many renditions on the thought and, of, course, room for both doubt and expansion. Refreshingly playful.
🙂 Thank you, Tammy.
O my God
You are
something like the highest mountain
a grandeur of breathtaking proportions
Powerful One
You are
something like the vast ocean
an expanse I cannot measure
Creative One
You are
something like a radiant sunrise
painting brush strokes of beauty
Wise One
You are
something like the changing seasons
knowing our souls need all manner of weather
Merciful One
You are
like a refreshing rain in an endless drought
allowing us to drink in Your tenderness
Loving One
You are
like the warmth and majesty of a roaring campfire
wrapping heat around shivering bodies
inviting us near
yet with reverence and awe
O my God
I worship You
Amen and amen.
Something like
the dappled shading of morning sunshine;
the warm caress of sun on my face;
a moment of releasing the load of worries;
the trusting touch and hold of your hand;
the unexpected purple gentian blooming through gravel parking;
birds’ song punctuating the rich silence after singing together.
Something like ordinary times of heart’s lifting and soul singing.
Something like the companionship of the other that is deeply familiar.
Glimpses of the unknown God.
Alleluia.
So lovely! Alleluia indeed!
