It’s You
It’s the journey to you and from you
It’s the journey with and without you
It’s the journey in you and amid you
It’s You.
The way you lead and linger,
Prompting, holding, surrounding,
You wait for me to discover
It’s You.
Your absence and presence
make no difference to your encircling
For you are, and
It’s all about You.
You wait for me to catch up
Or wait for when I will wait too,
It’s the leap-frog leap of faith,
It’s You.
Where can I go from your presence?
Where can I hide from your love?
Where else is there but where
It’s You?
You surround me with birdsongs of beauty
You encompass me with winsomeness
You embody the imaginative impulse
For it is You my soul adores.
Had my Bible open and was reading Psalm 139 when I opened my phone and read this. How I love when God is patient with me and tells me He loves me twice. Merry Christmas!

…and I love how often God does this; providence, holy coincidences, perfect timing to get through to us. Bypassing our armour/obstacles, or simply seeping into the space we have been hoping He’d enter – Our Abba answers the question “where can I hide from your love?” with “no where.”
