Mystery

Jesus.

It’s impossible to portray Him wholly—

To define him, explain him,He is mystery.


Humble and daring

Soft spoken and blistering

Full of sorrow, full of joy

Strongly meek and quietly bold


Child of heaven

Son of earth

Power of eternity

Bearer of light

Former of worlds

Shaper of souls

Storm of glory

Love of God

Offender of religious

Befriender of the lost and wandering

Lamb of sacrifice

Lion of Judah

King of kings

Servant of servants

Quieter of storms

Disturber of peace

Holiness of humanity


For I no longer just know about Him.

Now, I know Him.

For when the veil is lifted

And I see Him as he is

Nothing is the same:

Transformer, Earth-shatterer,Life-giver,

Healer, Comforter, Soul-consumer, Sustainer, Redeemer.


Savior.

Jesus.

Jerry,
Beautiful. God is such a mystery isn't He? He can occupy to completely opposite places wholly and perfectly. You did an amazing job capturing the essence of God. He is beyond the capacity of our words and comprehension. Yet we can know Him intimately. Amazing!

To see Him, really see Him, takes our breath away.

Blessings, my friend,
Kelli
