God being God

 God being God
 
A dog chasing its tail –
such is our search for God.
 
How tenacious is the ignorance
that cloaks the human mind!
 
I was briefly allowed the illusion of liberty,
the illusion of wandering a bit,
 
but in Reality I’ve never left
God’s fenced-in backyard – 
 
never a moment without His eye upon me;
His hand upon my shoulder.
 
He has allowed me a lifespan of explorations –
of my world and my humanity, 
 
of my loneliness, longing and revelations,
of my fragile attachments and fleeting delights,
 
all seemingly essential components of my adventure.
I might guess in my old age the whys and wherefores
 
but in the end it is God’s secret and all I can
insipidly suggest is that it’s merely God being God.
 
O child of God, cease barking up the wrong tree.
Grow mute enough to hear the voice within.
