I thought things
were under control –
until they weren’t
and I am still unsure
exactly where it all
unraveled,
how I came to
the end of myself.
And yet that’s
where I ended up.
At the end of myself.
It would
seem that
at one’s end
There
Would
Be
Nothing.
But you were there.
You caught me.
You held me.
And you taught me
about who you are
and who I am.
You made it known
to me that I am
not the sum of
what goes right
in my world.
In fact, I am
more than that
I am
glory,
grace,
and eternity
is within me
because you
are in me.
These mysteries
are out of my control.
and somehow
that’s okay with me.
The end of myself
is no longer
a place that I fear.
It’s the place
where I rest.
Where I am the
most empty
and yet
every need is met.
A wonder.
I am amazed
at what you
revealed to me;
honored by the
way you showed
me who you are
in the midst of
swirling
circumstances.
