God of the Heart

When I least expect,
You find me.
When I am unready,
You speak in whispers,
Silent, insistent.
In the heat of the action
Your stillness descends.
In the casual, mindless moment,
You suddenly appear.

When I seek you out,
I may feel nothing,
Yet You are here.
When I call,
You may not answer,
But still I listen.

When I struggle,
You wait for me.
When I resist,
You do not leave.
When I’m prodigal,
You embrace me.
And when pain
And fear are crippling,
You are there.
