fetters on the infinite – v2


we bind the unlimited
the Creator, the Master
we put fetters on the infinite
blinders on the divine
God, creator of the universe
describing in human terms

putting God in a box
a vessel of our creation
made of earth, of stone
of stuff of dust

God’s power immense
beyond our comprehension
seeking to bind the unlimited
putting fetters on the infinite
blinders on the divine
so we will understand

At church, we are doing a study on the Ability of God
and the extent of His power. We started with the request
of the double portion from Elisha's story. It has been amazing
We have learnt how to boldly ask God, make daring prayers, etc.”
