light.

worship.
Every day you create something out
of
nothing.
Every day you make alive what was
once dead.
Every day you redeem what seems
beyond redemption.
There is no one like
you.
There are no words
to adequately capture the
wonder
of your redeeming power.
There is no one like
you.
No one who knows what you
know.
No one who is able to do what you
do.
