Resident Reflection

Can I know you as Abba
All that you are for me
And ever was
The diversity of life
You sculpt on Your three dimensional pallet
Thick white clouds that reflect sunlit hues
My eyes reflect emotion
Can my emotion reflect a sturdy trust in You
You are amazing God
I peer into the microcosm of cellular structures
The tiny seedlings
I view the macrocosm the horizon
The space below the blue
You are genius God
And I have the audacity to brag
My limited knowledge like broken puzzle pieces
Of magazines, television, books
Your knowledge consists of all things hidden
And all things revealed
Yet not only are you aware of everything
But you carved it Yourself from Your small
Atomic building blocks
Let us speak of yet another dimension beyond space and time
I shall call it truth and love
And you my God are the Master of both
