God in Our Skin

Great God of the immensities,
Word of the limitless silences,
Surveyor of the infinite spaces,
Now
Redimensioned but undiminished
In the awesome cost of humanness.
Awefilled I watch you,
Baby,
Jesus:
First breath, first grasp,
First suck, first sound,
Learning to be human,
God in our skin.

God-with-Us
