Mercy


"Deep calls to deep"
-Psalm 42:7

+

You carved and dug

Deep into me

Mercilessly
(or so it seemed)

And made of me
Your Well
in this desert

For all who are thirsty
For all who would drink

Deeply

of Your

Mercy

+

"They shall partake of the abundance of the seas,
and of treasures hidden in the sand."
-Deuteronomy 33:19

“The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”
