IT I S
IT is so simple IT’S complex, so easy IT’S hard, so dense IT makes things lucid,
so tough IT requires meekness, so transparent IT’S clearly defined,
so unfathomable IT makes perfect sense, so unattainable IT’S given freely,
so boast worthy IT remains humble, so demanding IT asks for nothing.
IT is here in the present though IT never began,
IT savors not knowledge but possesses perfect wisdom. For things impossible IT becomes hope,
IT does not fear but holds high IT’S expectancy, IT is not anxious and abides in complete patience.
IT is action not emotion; IT is deed agreeing with Word, IT is accomplishment not intention;
IT relies not on what is heard, though IT trusts in what is promised.
Dreadful things IT dismisses, and good things IT uplifts.
IT carries hardships, and troubles IT endures.
In joyousness IT partakes, IT’S companion is glory.
Experiencing IT blesses others, giving IT blesses oneself.
IT is the fulfillment of what is promised, IT fills up all that is empty.
With IT, is perfection, without IT, is nothing.
IT IS...God’s Love
