Day 3: Random

This isn't really a poem so much as it is a meditation. I heard a story listening to a sermon from Mars Hill about a lady who worked at Calvin College. There is a mantle that is carved with the inscription "Be Still and Know that I Am God." The lady said that she had meditated on that for years by simply taking one word off at a time. I have done the same, but sometimes with phrases.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
In the beginning, God created.
In the beginning, God.

In the ending, God reigns in the heavens and the earth.
In the ending, God reigns.
In the ending, God.
