“Theologians have done more to hide the Gospel of
Christ than any of its adversaries.”
― George MacDonald

I looked for God in a book
in the wise words of learned men
ah yes, and women too
amidst profundities galore I wandered
courting courtly terms
justified
sanctified
vicarious atonement
sin
redemption
salvation
more and more knowledge about God
I gathered into my mind
seeking to capture infinity in finite terms and
concepts
tired I wandered out and looked to the sky
and there exposed
God’s grandeur shown
with quiet dignity
shining forth
Ah, the God who reveals
Sacred majesty on high
and brings me gently
to
that placed called
faith
what was lost
in a multitude of tomes
was found
in the stars
and a blood red moon
