God is everywhere in the eyes of the passer by in the sun on the tip of your tongue as you give me wisdom in your arms when you hold me He is in the wind that washes across your face on it's way to the sea God is in you & me He searches your heart and it feels like longing He calls to your spirit and it is a sort of drawing calling you out into light holding you to something more As he turns you over in His hand and marvels at His awesome creation as you marvel back at His awesome goodness His grace His love He finds countless ways to convey His best and despite all your wonder & doubt and it all comes through, right through you. ~C
