gently reminds you that
His thoughts are not
your thoughts.
His ways are not
your ways.
your thoughts and ways,
my thoughts and ways,
are not even in the
same universe
as His.
and yet I forget.
it's not that my ways are
necessarily wrong or bad.
it's not that my thoughts are
not of Him or even from Him.
it's simply that they cannot
even be like His
for He lives and breathes
and dances and sings
in a realm outside of
time and space as we
humans know it.
and is it not even difficult to grasp
that we cannot grasp it?
the symphony of creation is always
shouting and whispering
and singing of
who He is.
the beat of His heart
underlies all of
creation.
the sun and
moon and stars
and planets and
galaxies and oceans
and mountains and
valleys and wind and
rain and storms and trees
and wildflowers and meadows
and rivers and lakes and animals
and birds and fish and whales and
starfish and seahorses and
every living creature,
including you and me,
are part of that symphony,
with a song and a story
one of a kind.
and is it not even difficult to grasp
that we cannot grasp it?
such is the realm of His thoughts
and of His ways.
so when He whispers that
He sees what I cannot see
and knows what I cannot
even begin to know and
that without the
darkrooms of life
the story would
not be complete
and He is holding
your heart and my heart
and even the hearts not wanting
to be held and nothing will ever
separate us from His love...
I. need. to. listen.
and trust that He can
be trusted to be trusted.
