heaven sewn to earth in Christ

Your love is strong.
Your love is invasive.
Your love is unrelenting.

Oh, the wonder of God dwelling in the frame of man.
Dust encasing glory,
flesh concealing light.

I can never stray too far,
for Your spirit haunts the home of my blood and bone.
For I am Your temple.
no diamonds.
no gold.
just rib to skin enfolding the Creator.

How can this be so?

You have wrapped your arms of love
around the soul of my self
and refuse to let go.

I awake and You are with me.
I fall asleep and Your stirring in the depths.

Your love is unyielding
Your passion is all-consuming
Your jealousy is more dangerous in what it demands,
than that of the grave.

Simple, mundane moments become
humanity kissed by HOLY, HOLY, HOLY.

You in I.
I hidden in You.
The spirit of the Son of God raging to end the visible separation.

Let Your nearness,
Your fierceness be seen, be known, be feared.

For You are not passive.
You are not impatient.
there is no shadow of turning with You.

I can not escape You.
I can not escape You.
I can not escape You.

the curtain torn,
the bridge built,
the debt paid.

Your blood beckons me.
Your righteousness calls out.

Let God enter man.
& dwell therein.
till eternity passes,
and on and on it goes.
