He has put eternity
in my heart, an inexplicable
evidence of redemption
drawing my mind
into infinite
awe of His masterful
blueprints . . . so beyond
the most ingenious
creation
of humankind,
who am I to spout
knowledge of His perfection?
To pretend I know even
the beginning of wisdom?
To think I could
understand any part
of His omniscient mind?
To presume articulation
of His majestic ways?
No, that would be
the apogee
of foolishness.
Rather, I must bow
in humility &
reverence
to respect
the sacredness
of His holiness.
I must yearn
for the truth
of His Scripture,
and be willing to submit
to His will, to repent, &
to worship His glory.
Yes,
these are the pearls
I must seek.
These are the gifts
I must offer
in gratitude
for His forgiveness,
His restoration,
His salvation,
the intrinsic life
that planted
instantaneous
immortality
in my soul
to bloom
in His
exquisite
timing.
