listening, breathless

August 4, 2008

“To be certain of God is to be uncertain in all our ways. You never know what a day may bring. This is generally said with a sign of sadness; it should rather be an expression of breathless expectation.                                                                                                        Oswald Chambers                               

God has broken in to our
silence stood with a ribbon of love from open arms,
oceans of open red and
no curtains closed
a breeze of grace
kissing a laughing mouth
so no longer compromising
in this redeeming love
possibility turns to promise.

  1. i realise this is a really *really* late comment, but i was browsing your blog again (ha) and saw that quote again… I really love that Chambers quote, when I first read it back in December it meant so much to me. It was (is) an encouragement that in leaving uni and walking into the unknown, being uncertain about everything, I could still be certain in God. Still means a lot to me!
