Speechless

Sometimes, I feel Ancient.

I'm only 27 years old, but I feel like I'm going on 300.

My eyes have seen: Love, Hate, Joy, Sorrow, Peace, Patience, Frustration, Horror, Death, Dying, Killing, Fighting, Destruction, Holiness, Pain, Suffering, Torment, Endless Nights and Ceaseless Days, Pitch Black, Brilliant White, Kindness, Gentleness, War, Innocence, Guilt, Extreme Violence, Blood and the Shedding of Blood, Turmoil, Depravity, Tragedy, Tranquility, Fiercely fought battles and Moments of never-ending silence...

Should you ask me to comment on wars, rumors of wars, personal tragedies, political turmoil, global travesties, health issues, upheaval, and everything in between, I would have unending words to give you. Ask me: What Is One Of The Reasons Why You Think God Is Real?

Because only my King can cause me to be speechless.

Colossians 1:15-20 (New King James Version)

15) He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16) For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17) And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist. 18)And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have preeminence. 19) For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, 20) and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.

Colossians 1:15-20 (The Message)

15 We look at this Son and see the God who cannot be seen. We look at this Son and see God's original purpose in everything created. 16 For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible, rank after rank after rank of angels - everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him. 17 He was there before any of it came into existence and holds it all together right up to this moment. 18 And when it comes to the church, he organizes and holds it together, like a head does a body. 19 So spacious is he, so roomy, that everything of God finds its proper place in him without crowding. 20 Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe - people and things, animals and atoms - get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of his death, his blood that poured down from the Cross.

My King puts everything into perspective. He is the sum of every mathematical equation; He is the glue that holds our Universe together; He is the balance of every living creature; He is the sustaining force for all Life as we know it; He is the perfect One, timeless and unending; He is the perfect Song; He is the unrelenting Lover; He IS.

And who am I?
