Written while trying to drum up the courage to begin my first theology paper on God.
Pondering God

How is it, Lord, I know thee not,
And yet thou knowest me?
'Tis rather like an apple's task
To tell about the tree
When all it knows is apple-ness.
Oh God, how can I see
Beyond myself, my finite world,
Into your mystery?


***

Holy God, You are a Mystery
Not to be resolved
But to be entered into and savored.
