Someone once asked the question:
"Who is your God?
When you close your eyes
And you pray to Him,
What kind of God is He?"
This man knew my faith,
And he had the same,
But this question...
It was deeper than it seemed.
He asked me to look far
Down into my heart
And dig into my beliefs.
It seemed so simple...
My God is forgiving.
"Well what does that mean?
What does that mean to you?"
It means He loves me
Enough to forgive me
For... anything... wow...
It's so much to think
When I take it all in.
"Does He love you?"
Well yes of course.
"How do you know?"
I can feel Him,
And He tells me in my heart.
"But there's more.
Who is He?
It's not about what you've been taught
To simply recite with a smile.
No, this is so much more.
Who is He?"
It's a rather daunting challenge,
The scariest question I know
Because I can't even explain
This wonderful God of mine.
He is far too holy
And much too perfect...
But still I wish I could say
It's easy to believe in His perfection...
Somehow I accept miracles
But can't understand how...
He sees me as beautiful?
The big things feel so normal
Because God is God,
So He must be big,
But the little details
Catch me off guard every time:
He knows me.
He sees me,
Even my poisoned heart.
He loves me.
That's always the most shocking...
My God loves me
More than I can love myself,
And from my perspective,
That's His greatest power.
