Irrevocable...Two-for-two Tues.

“We are talking about God. 

What wonder is it that you do not understand? 

If you do understand, then it is not God.”

– St. Augustine

Sometimes we stand on time's little blue dot 

Surrounded by eons of stars

and dare to point fingers at Almighty God

because of life's sorrow and scars 

While He wears the nails prints and offers His grace

to pay our sin-debt in full

While He with infinite love for human race

pours morning into night's dark hull

While He fills the seed and provides for our need

While He tunes the tides of the air

While He sends the rain

and then sunshine again

And tends to the answers of prayer

with ceaseless compassion; sometimes we forget

and draw a cold dividing line

between we and He who is faithful yet

even while we doubt, or pine

gorging on good and craving what is not

Thinking we know what we deserve

Sometimes we stand on time's little blue dot

Forgetful of God and His love

...but still He is near

we cannot commandeer

with our thought

His Amen

Nothing can separate us from His love

We are His precious
