One
God is physics and physics, God.
Perfected and indifferent,
His law cannot be broken,
just imperfectly understood.
His word is crystalline
and clear as void between the worlds,
beyond the finite pitch
of human ear or eye.
Our sin is but a word,
lower case, and never his concern.
His will is whole, inviolate,
and wholly full of possibility.
His is the infinite space
of possibility: cold or bright
as matters dark and light.
He is one.
His word and will are one.
And we are on our own.

Big truth here
I think/believe/sense
We are on our own, and what a mess we make sometimes. To bad there's no one else to blame.
You KNEW I’d love this.
I blame Bush Joani.
Ha!
Yes.
"beyond the finite pitch

Great piece, Gary.
Thanks, Horace.
No deus ex machina this trip, Joani. Alas.
Thanks, Steve. Reading your "Faith" reminded me of this so it's your fault.
Thank you very much, Sam.
"And we are on our own." Amen
Watchmaker God.
Well done, Gary*
Thank you, John.
