The Big Blue

Largeness
It took my breath away
I gasped through my tube
and retreated to the pillars

focused on the waving grass
the sea squirts
and my boyfriend as he found our meal

but that thing to feel
like I had never seen the world so big
and never felt so lost
surrounded by blue
no end in sight

fright ensued

but as I read about God's glory
do I perhaps hide by pillars
my home, my friends, my schedule
to avoid the vastness that He is?

If I let His Glory be real
what would I be?
A small person treading water with flippers
thousands of creatures around and below me

I would be out of control

let go of these holds
let it in
let Him be the wild and beautiful God that He is

know that it is hard not to sin
to err
to wander
but lets not squander
the beauty of He
and in His great presence just to be
