Measure

The way of God
Is like a tape measure

Ever extending and adjusting

In hand to what’s measured.

Not that things can’t be measured by certain marks

Accurately and meaningfully for what they are

But that the units are only what we make of them

And precision only by the human eye.

So to be sure

God is not relative

We are

And from this we cannot escape.

Even theologically

We are always relative to our gaze in God

For while everything must be IN-God just as it is

Yet OF-God comes a distinct and diverse human measure.

So let us view

Whatever might be

The measure of all things

Accordingly.

 

There is no command from God

Which is not written by human hands

Yet

There is no human law

Which does not aspire to God’s hands

God is context

We are meaning

God is the object

We are the measure

God is scale

We are units

God is the range

We are the accuracy

God is limit

We are precision

God is the spectrum
The world is alight

And we are that bright sliver of colors.
