Steadfast. Immovable (Part II)

Steadfast. Immovable (Part II) is the second of an 11 part series of poems I wrote in 2010 during a time of transition. Transition has always been hard for me, but this situation, I really experienced God shepherding my heart as I left one role and move onto another. He did a lot of shifting on the heart level for me. These poems celebrate how constant and strong He is in the midst of life's uncertainty. (1 Corinthians 15.58)


Christ steadfast. immovable.
            holding every heartbeat
            and the length of every soul.
            Love sounds His call (in silence).
            it echoes past the mind
            between ribs and organs.
            it presses an eternal weight
            upon the chest unknown in every man
            yet stars shine
            the ocean crashes
            a baby cires
            and Christ—he dances!
            what a clap, a romp, an endless celebration!
            for the Rock is seated
            and the throne is salvation!
