Things of God Spoken Word Poetry
Stability
Things of God by Emily Ulman
Things of God, What Scripture Reveals Our Spirit Experiences During Our Dying shares the results of much time spent in God’s Word. I’m now on a quest that, though I would never have chosen it, I can’t not continue. My quest is to get this book into the hands so many struggling with their end of life coming sooner than expected, and those struggling with loss. I find it a comfort and a powerful tool; one I think Christ has big plans to use to impact His Kingdom for His glory.
On my flat with broken off edges, modest piece of stability
I sprawl on hands and knees; the wide waters violent and swift
I am on them, and in their unpredictability I ride
The only predictable, they lead to the brink.
The edge of myself is ahead, I know it and brace for it as I swiftly ride on
God has me here in this place, along the way at this time, for His reasons
And the edge, looming large, is here and the threatening falls are next
He realizes me that in actuality, the falls rise
He rotates the view and I see that once I splash over the edge
They rise and will rise me
Up and up my stability and I will fall
Until we reach the waters calm
And soon the still and massive pool they lead on to;
And all points along the way have been planned
And each connection I make, He prepared
Until my personal character has reached the place He reveals
Come up higher, He invites; He brings the greater viewpoint
Keep in the light of it, always be at work in it, He cautions
And the vehemency, it no longer frightens
For my firm foundation is Christ, my Stability; it is He to which I cling
