He Is Here
By Amena Brown
He is here. Right here.
In this room. In your heart.
He is near. Nearer than breath. Heartbeats.
Nearer than you are to you.
Closer than second chance or next opportunity.
Closer than tonight or yesterday.
He is Real. Realer than touch.
See. Hear. Smell or Taste.
Realer than reality. He is our reality.
He is present. Like space. Wind. Time. Silence. Night.
He is waiting. Like Creation.
Like words on the tip of tongue.
Like songs that have yet to be sung.
He is Beauty. Oranges. Blues.
Every Hue. Every shade.
Sunset and Sunrise. Whisper His Name.
He is Holy. Different.
Cannot be touched. Explained
Like, Sweet seconds of prayers.
Like, Grandmother on knees.
Wood floor Bare.
He is old hymns.
The is the extending of limbs.
Stretched across trees.
Stripes to heal disease.
He is Son. Distinctly three. Distinctly one.
The only one. The only wise. The only resurrector of lives.
He is King.
No earthly throne can house.
No amount of elegant words can espouse.
He is Moments and Voice.
Power of Choice.
And Word. And Deed. And Fruit. And Seed.
Nailed hands. Nailed feet.
Innocent wounds that bleed.
He is Believe and Trust.
He is Enough. He is All.
He is Call and Purpose.
Everything that we can sacrifice.
He is worth it and more. Much More.
Our good deeds are mere pennies.
We’ll never even the score.
He is Behold. And Wow.
He is Who. What. When. Why. How.
He Puts on the Show.
He is the one we come to see.
He is Souls Cry and sinner’s plea. He is the epitome.
He is the One know one can light a candle to
or come within a million foot pole of.
He is Above.
He is a Father’s Love.
He is maker of ways.
Ancient of Days.
Has No Fear.
Have No Fear.
God is Here.

Try as I might have to write some insight about this, I fear doing so for I might distort what is already a perfect work. I have things to say about this, but I will keep those to myself this time. For me, this is something that has to be absorbed and felt. I hope that you will do just that.
