superlative



is there a superlative grand enough for mercy?
i don't think so.
this morning when i was working out,
i was caught off guard by grace
it hit me how madly in love God is with us humans,
how constant is His longing for our nearness,
i had to stop pedaling for a moment
i reached for the crucifix around my neck
pulled it out from underneath my shirt
looking at it,
i asked for forgiveness for ignoring this mercy
how my days get the best of me
how i become distracted with work,
letting everything be about me...
how boring!
how shallow!
how insipid!
there is not a grand enough superlative for Mercy..
no
