God of Echoes
Above clouding noise
Above erasing passions
Above tides of bleak tiredness
in the midst of daily routines
In dark nights of the soul,
the God of life echoes
a call
reverberating again and again
A kick beat into my life
penetrating extreme sound
Shaking my inner soul
Creating a transparent heart
before the Creator God.
Awareness arises
I have nothing
standing
crystal-clear before Christ’s journey
crystal-clear in front of the cross
Before this love
Poured down, poured out,
overflowing, deep beyond deep
I stop, talk to God
Press pause...
Press pause...
And now in the silence
immersed between the echoes
a silence stretching eternity
into its depths,
holy love intertwines
profound closeness, meaning
questions and realities
into the space,
How can I not smile in this love?
How can I not cry in this love?
How can I not wonder in this love?
How can I not be in this love?
How can I not find peace in this love?
How can I respond in worship to this love?
My God, my King.
Starting Thoughts: In the noise and routines of life, the business, can we press pause… and rest in the silence immersed between the echoes and listen, become aware of God's love.
