Understanding
has no meaning, said my Lord.
Perhaps, I misunderstood,
refusing to lie down quietly in the fallow field
or step in any direction
without an established reason,
while the ground shifts steadily under my feet
creating the illusion of forward momentum.
Love has meaning,
said my Lord.
What meaning has Love?
Understanding
has no meaning.
But I don’t understand –
Obedience
has more meaning.
What meaning has obedience?
Understanding
has no meaning.
But I don’t understand –
Surrender
has most meaning.
What meaning has surrender?
Understanding
has no meaning.
O child of God, understanding will not release you
from the terror that separates you from God.
