I run, I leap, I fall, I plunge into the mystery.
Certainty with redundancy has lost its radiance.
It retains no power to attract my heart.
Mystery envelops divinity and
Divinity envelops mystery.
Into that cloud
I must go without hesitation
In trepidation.
I shall be at home there, drawn to God
By God.
And I cannot tell you what I shall find.
Nor can I describe what I see there.
I cannot tell you how or why I know except that
In God's embrace, I am known.
And the love that has taken hold of me has held me tightly
In the grip of mercy.
And being there and going there and sensing that destiny,
I can somehow remain here
And be here on purpose
And in community celebrate the joy
Of another world
That makes sense of this world.
I do believe it God.
I believe in God even when God is silent.
And I rest in that peace that passes understanding.
Amen.
