I
Now man knows a bit of
God's dispositions,
of what God has and is,
of the works that He does.
Yet most of their understandings are
nothing more than words on a page,
theories in mind.
God doesn't want anyone to feel
abandoned or left out in the cold.
He wants to see a firm heart
to follow the road
of knowing God and seeking truth.
II
What people lack is a true knowledge
and a view that
come from real experience.
God tries various ways
to awaken man's heart,
but there's still a long road
before it's revived.
God doesn't want anyone to feel
abandoned or left out in the cold.
He wants to see a firm heart
to follow the road
of knowing God and seeking truth.
He wants everyone to march on,
carry no burden, take no misgiving.
III
No matter what wrongs
you have done,
no matter how far you've gone astray,
don't stop your pursuit
of knowing God.
You should continue marching on.
God's heart to save man
will never change.
This is what's most precious of God.
God doesn't want anyone to feel
abandoned or left out in the cold.
He wants to see a firm heart
to follow the road
of knowing God and seeking truth.
He wants everyone to march on,
carry no burden, take no misgiving.
from "God Himself, the Unique VI" in The Word Appears in the Flesh
