~ The Geography of God ~

~~~~~~~

There are rivers within the canyon of God
that we’ve not yet stripped off our clothes
and run butt naked into…
Oh, let’s dive in and experience the most incredible
rush of His love
flowing in and through us…

There are stars within the galaxy of God
that we’ve not yet reached in our exploration
of Him to find ourselves merged with the heat and the light
that is beaming from His deepest heart
of love shining in and through us.

There are fragrances within the flower of God
that we’ve not yet fully breathed in--
of life and scent filling our nostrils
with invigorating drunkenness of
sweetness His Spirit wafts in our direction
on the breeze.

There are depths in the ocean of God
that we’ve not fathomed nor have we plunged
bravely to the places where mysteries
of the deep are revealed
to those whose eyes have adjusted
to dark places to be explored in the ocean
of His love.

There are caresses from the hands of God
That we’ve not yet allowed to wrap around our frame--
to nestle into the hiding place
that is God—let us welcome His intimate
touch that heal wounds in our deepest heart.

There are bridges that cross the chasms of what we know
of God and who He truly is. There are gulfs between what is true and what we’ve understood up until this moment--
In the progress and the movement and the building of the
bridges that take us across the gaps in our hearts…

There are harmonies within the music of God
That we’ve not yet heard with the ear
of our spirit—melodies that will cause our hearts
to dance with wild abandon
await us, in the depths of the symphony He orchestrates…
