TRINITY FOR LOVE



Image result for TRINITYReading this is not to play an intellectual game

If we can shave off the trinity from God
We will still not be relieving him of some irksome weight
Rather we would be shearing him of precisely what is so delightful about him
Our love for each other is just a spark from the mighty frame
The overflowing kindness of our hearts are grabbing loveliness

This is rather hard going than pointless
One that could surely be lopped off
With no consequence other than a universal sigh of relief
“God is a mystery”
Who can know, why bother?

I can whisper in my most piously hushed tone
Such sentiments score high for their ring of reverence
And score pretty low for accuracy
Hard things get left

If we understand God so well, He will cease to be God
Seeking to understand everything about him is like walking on a slope
The first way is like a slippery, sloping t-top goat path
On a stormy, moonless night, during an earthquake
And when you walk this path, you will miss God in the most terrible way

This thinking is catastrophic for a healthy Christian living
This insight is like a stick of dynamite in all our thought about God
Such is the cold and gloomy the place to which the dark goat path takes us
