dancing through my head…
I stand on the brink, on the edge of myself.
And wonder at all that is beyond me.
I am jealous of the ocean and the sky
that do not seem to end.
Of the universe itself that holds so much immensity.
I seek to comprehend all knowledge, and I cannot even know of all that has been written.
I am a finite creature.
But I ever struggle to hold within my grasp
the mystery of being.
I want the power of knowing all, of seeing all,
of having all,
Yet I cannot even possess myself.
I have thoughts and hopes and fears that I
cannot often understand, nor more
frequently admit.
I am not a comfortable creature.
Even my most cherished dreams I cannot
make come true.
My heart cries out to me to be God, and my
life shouts out that I am not.
And my faith is built on the hope that
someone else is.
I am left with the experience that I exist beyond
myself, and yet cannot contain my source.
I am a grain of sand wanting to possess the
ocean, and the miracle of love is that I can.
He has made me so small, so he can stretch me
to immensity.
He has made me so poor, so he can fill me,
pressed down and overflowing with
his richness.
He has made me so limited, so that he can
make me boundless.
He has made me a creature, so that he can
make me in His image.
He has entered thy heart, and he has
called me home.
He has called me home.
“I will come to you,
and my father will come to you,
and we will make our home in you.”
