He Is Enough

Have faith in God, for He is good.
Nothing troubles nor frighten those
who seek God, they lack nothing.
For God alone is enough.

Seemingly so extreme
that God alone is enough.
Nothing else required.
Nothing else to be desired.

But alas how else are we to seek?
Unless we use the gifts in the world
that God has given us so that
we may come to know Him better.

To know Him? To know? Him?
How can one even comprehend
when life itself is filled
with the complex rhythms of God?

Ah and that is when we are called
to have faith in what we know not.
It is through that lens that we
the temporal, come to know the eternal.

It is in the very DNA of creation
the very mystique of interaction
the shining immortal diamond
buried in the core of who we are.

It is there God reveals Himself.
It is there God reaches out to us.
For God's language is love
and He speaks in the dialect of experience.

Thus we must not mistakenly place are faith
in the gifts God has given us, but in Him.
That is the challenge, tragedy, and beauty
of our human lives.

To struggle and to wrestle trusting in
an awesome God beyond our imagination.
To have faith in Him who we struggle to know
and yet, consequently, lack nothing.

For God alone is enough.
