a piece of himself

unable to find the words

the truth of God’s love

putting a piece of himself

within us, his breath,

his spark, his mark

part of the creator, the universe

captured and placed

within us, in our cells

in our lives, to be shared

crying out, calling

reaching others, the piece of God

within them too

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (NIV)

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Habakkuk+3%3A17-19&version=NIV
¹⁷ Though the fig tree does not bud
    and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
    and the fields produce no food,
though there are no sheep in the pen
    and no cattle in the stalls,
¹⁸ yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
    I will be joyful in God my Savior.

¹⁹ The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    he enables me to tread on the heights.”

Habakkuk 3:17-19 (rewritten by me, one version)

http://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2013/08/though-mills-may-be-shuttered.html

17 Though the mills may be shuttered

and the forests are empty,

though the fields do not provide

their bounty, their harvest,

though the young are departing

for greener pastures,

18 yet I rejoice in my God

I will be joyful in Christ my Savior.

19 The Creator of the universe is my rock

I am like the deer, its hooves

steady on the Mountain.
