TO KNOW

To know the answer to the question....

Who are you LORD??

Do I really know?

Maybe the question I am asking rather is..

Do I really WANT to know...

I find the Answer...

But to ACCEPT the answer is 

MONUMENTAL

Accepting .. who You are..

Changes life forever

If I really knew who YOU are..

I would know 

the choice has already been made.

No turning back...

YOU CHOSE ME

If I really knew who You are....

No hesitation coming to You.

 If I really knew who YOU are..

I would KNOW that You care.

 If I really knew who YOU are..

I would know that You turn...

the world upside down to bring

each lost little one into

......fuller

             deeper

LIFE.

 If I really knew who YOU are..

I would know..

You do not leave me at the brink

   of a wide, full, 

                       universe of love.

If I really knew who You are

I would know...

You draw me ever deeper...

ever wider,

ever higher,

into the knowledge

of

Your love for me.

 If I really knew who You are,

 I would know 

that before time...

You already knew

  that 

I would love

Choke cherries in summer 

    and

         High bush crannberries in winter....

Jesus- On the Way to Jordan's Shore

Heart longing

Grasshoppers chirring

Quiet evening breezing..

Warm sand whirling
On toes scuffing - worn.
 Wisps of wind,
Feather hair over eye-beams..

To see Oh to see!

So good to be in My Father's world.

Longing...

Longing to share the depths.

Contemplation - Deep yearning

Frustration - Who will truly know?

Lonely -Whose heart will meld with mine?

Hard, hard this world..

Longing to share the heart- songs

....others forget to see

.......too tired to see

.........too oblivious to see..

Longing ... 

The Mystery of eternity's golden thread

Weaving eternal sparks of life into time.

It is here! O taste and see!

Touch and feel!

Like honey..

       Velvet..

Sparking with Fire...

          Lost in wonder

Come!

Eternity Born Into Time

                                                                             Time locked earth

                                                                              Groaning for the Light..

                                                                              God not considering

                                                                                          holding onto Godhead

                                                                              Made himself nothing.

                                                                                       The Word.

                                                                               Light of the World,

                                                                              Hovered over darkness

Then through velvet  dark...

Brooding 

      breathing

          bearing forth

Human body from divinity.

Eternity birthed into time.....

Beginning of newness and LIGHT

"And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross."World English Bible

May my yearnings..bring about the fullness of time...

Golden threads of eternity melding with time...

Reaching

      penetrating into every darkness....

For the Father Himself 

has taken Divine Hands made human,
Touching!

Tenderly to  turn stiff necked head,

eyes bent low...

gently turning .. eye-beams yearning...
A little higher..
Gentle touch on tip of chin,
Eyebrows furl..

Gaze in line with His own.

Communion .. Eternity with Time,
                    ...Time with Eternity,


Eyebeam to eyebeam.....


          SHINING !

Sunday Eucharist

In silence I sit,
Warm rivulets flowing,
          Streaming down cheeks,
                          Warm and pliant.
Rigidity released....
            Risk the abandoned flow!
Overwhelmed by being human,

           filled with Divine.

When out of my rut I risk the Divine.

           Oh the Mystery!

           Divine Delight,

As I gaze upon His face.

I NEED A MOP LORD!

I'm being human 

          filled 

            with 

                 Divine.

Ruts turned to Risk

Bridging to 

                 Eternity..

G Taliotis. Sunday November 12 2011 11:45 a.m.

The Cross and Christmas

The Light of the World 

Shines in this dark place,

Love 

Expectant and yearning

Groaning with birth pangs.

Infinite Love,

Births from Eternity to Time.. 

Into

World groaning with burdens.

Waiting, waiting 

A sign.

Then

Groaning in agony on timeless tree

He takes it all on,

Darkness defeated,

Eternity is birthed into Time.

For love, all for love,

That I might have life and light from above.

I bow down in wonder

As Light pierces darkness.

My burden I lay down

and
I, I am lifted up

Up into YOUR love

Once more.

Fellowship restored 

To Dance , To Love

For Joy!
