For the life of every living thing is in his hand, and the breath of every human being (Job 12:10; NLT).
For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face (1 Corinthians 13:12; NRSV).
Lord,
In contemplation,
As throughout my life,
Each breath I take
Comes straight from you,
And brings me nearer
To your presence –
Until I see you,
Face to face,
At last.
