Just imagine/

my perennial failure and refusal to/

inhabit God/

I don’t mean go to church/

or lead church/

or dictate spirit/

I mean/

indwell/

and dwell in/

the Living/

Loving God/

Maybe my failure to do so/

Invites God to inhabit my life/

and the only way to get/

my full attention/

because I just won’t be/

still/

with God/

the only way to make me/

stop and look/

is a form of something/

I once called affliction/

until I realized/

the holy version of life/

is that every crisis/

sickness/

betrayal/

disaster/

failure/

is God’s best opportunity/

for a new life of love/

a golden sun setting last chance/

all over again and again/

to begin all over again/

There are days/
when we remember/
that we have been loved/
by giants/
and such love/
is sustaining/
no matter where/
how far/
or long/
or harrowing/
our /
way/
