Everlasting Life

"...as scripture says: What eye has not seen, and ear has not heard
and has not entered into the heart of man, what God has prepared
for those who love Him." 1 Corinthians 2:9  (Is 64:4/Sir 1:10)

Father,

The juice of Your Love,
One without sour,
Strained from Your Infinity,
You arrange for me
To savour for etermity.

You wait with joy
To gift me this joy.

A joy no eye has seen, for
Our lightless beams
Reach not beyond our horizon
To You.

A joy no ear has heards, for
Our channels open only
To the babble of the world's surf,
Not the hush of Your Love.

A joy not entered into the heart, for
Our life-fountain flows meekly
To the dance music
Strung on the five cords of the senses.

Father,

I am dust and clay and
Wear spoiled garments;
YET, You prepare for me
A joy,
A love,
With garments of white
Won for us by the Ruby Love
Of Your Son, Jesus.

How can I not be grateful.
