The love of God is like a churning cloud of light,


Where with every turning,


There is a new bliss.




How is it that I know you God?


When I verged onto adulthood, I asked this question quite frankly,


And I had to conclude that I did not know you at all, only that I had a tendency to pray to you,


And in this habit, I must trust you exist.




But at that time, I had not tasted your love.




The love of God ever changes,


Each development bringing,


Fresh joys.




Then came that peculiar time in my life when I began to feel strange and wonderful feelings.


When the evening hours came I would ascend and descend into strange inner depths.


And at bedtime I would feel your love,


Such that I was once moved to confess that I know you, God, not by knowing, but by your loving.




The love of God perpetually evolves,


Each manifestation revealing,


New savors.




I love you god I hate you God I love you God I hate you God,


This onion heart of mine,


Layered so!


When I am cut by suffering,


Are you brought to tear?




The love of God forever revolves,


Each revolution delivering,


New happiness.




I have risen and I have fallen many times, O God.


Here am I rising again,


So hear me, God.


Be attentive to my words,


My voice,


My song,


For I sing my love to you.




The love of God is like a churning cloud of light,


Where with every turning,


There is a new bliss--


Which is why the angels can cry "Holy, Holy, Holy,"


For all eternity,


Without ever diminishing...

Once our hearts and spirits becomes in love with Him and He with us, there is no turning back. We are nothing and He becomes everything
