sunrise sunset sandwich says yes to me

today is a happy day, because God.

Cherries and orangutans, cirrus clouds to ant triceps—all praise! The pie in oven and the flower dew, it all points to You!  You are the god of toe, the god of silence and the god closing alligator jaws. You still raise dead, you open blind and remove lizard monkey demons. You are the same yesterday, today, & forever! Clear like rain and clean like the rainbow after downpour, you’re a drink of cool water in the desert, and a hand up under the ice. You polka dot my life with glimpses of glory—Son peeking through clouds, heaven glitters. One intent look at the God of irises, & everything changes. You are on the other end of the phone line, waiting for me to pick up, without ceasing the call home always available and open to me, the porch light on, cookies in oven, You are not passively waiting for me. You fight to find me every second—wading fiercely through every distraction, each deception peeled away—You don’t stop coming till Your bride is free (pierced for me)! Let’s walk let’s run, gallop, sunrise—whatever You’re doing, I want, too. I just want to be with You. You—life Himself. Your Presence is the shape of my heart, the call I recognized the moment I first heard, new but familiar, like I knew You before. Origin Himself calling my name! Wow God. You’re not lame; You’re neat, awesome, fun, amazing, delightful, indescribable! Beyond words, You are Word. I love You, elephant trunk shaper. I love You!
