An unimaginable aptness
An unimaginable aptness
It’s bliss that’s promised us –
God’s bliss. That of
which He is made.
Not joyful exuberance;
nor ecstasy with its excruciation.
Not merriment with its amiability –
to be proffered and shared.
Bliss implies serenity, a certain passivity,
a coming quietly to rest,
yet more than mere contentment,
something beyond our humanity –
a culmination, the purpose fulfilled, destination reached;
the returning to a holy and unimaginable aptness.
O child of God, you might describe bliss
as the permanent end to feeling incomplete.
