Deeper Still
Tonight I rose up with the moon,
and looking down from high above
I saw a world carved and confused
into valleys deep in need of love
And falling down all thick with grace,
Heaven's cloud of mystery
Was filling every empty space,
down to the depth of human need
-Bebo Norman, "Deeper Still"
Anonymous. A word that just kills a curious person as myself. I don't know who commented a couple of days ago with these words, but much thanks. These words just hit the nail on the head. The world is in such need of Love...and God's grace is what can fill every nook and crany of that need. I mean think about it, He's everywhere...who brings the new buds to the trees after a harsh winter? This one always gets me...who feeds the sparrows in the cold, snowy months? They don't fret because they know that their Creator will provide. Sparrows always inspire me not to fret, but to simply believe. God sustains our very life and goes beyond that to give us His Son so that we can spend eternity with Him. Someone once told me, "Your reality is God's grace." As much as I didn't want to believe those words at the time, they are Truth. God's grace-His forgiveness and love that I don't deserve-that is the reality that I live in...that is what keeps me going.
