God is light (1 John 1:5; NIV).
For God speaks again and again, though people do not recognise it (Job 33:14; NLT).
He rides across the heavens to help you (Deuteronomy 33:26; NLT).
We give thanks because you are near (Psalm 75:1; NLT).
O LORD, why do you stand so far away? (Psalm 10:1; NLT).
Lord,
You are light, –
Yet we seek you
In darkness.
You speak –
Yet we seek you
In silence.
You move –
Yet we seek you
In stillness.
You are near –
Yet you can seem
So far away.
