Existence Itself



God is not a prime Mover beside the universe

God is the prime Existence of the universe
IN which we've traced an astounding prime movement, the Big Bang
OF which we've sensed a primordial consciousness, the Word 'Logos'
By which we yet squint to site a sacred arrow flying across the heavens

For with science we have broken down what has come to pass
Yet in bare faith we dare to declare it all still blazing
In one unified
Existence

Blasts of matter feeling their forces as they forge the elements
Bits of mind baking in the batter and rising into brains
Nature's metered medley blending in unison
Stoked and nurtured in the great oven of Existence

From Jacob to Jesus, from Copernicus to Carl Sagan
Holy Spirit is ultimately what we sense of the Cosmos
For to deny our basic love and awe of Existence
Is to deny any purpose to science or religion altogether

Thus, God is not some Mover beside our universe
God is the very Existence of this universe we brave
For a house divided against itself cannot stand
But a strong man bound up with it can be taken of its worth indeed!

For a miracle told is a miracle tried
And sometimes even despised as much
But in Christ we embrace the miracle which gives them all
The sublime spirit of Existence Itself.

- Matthew 12 : 22 – 37
