"there is a vast yawning..."


"Pilgrim
on earth,
home and heaven
are
within thee..."

- P. M.

there is 
a vast yawning
that opens within us

it pulls us
and claims us
and calls us,
“come home..."

it beckons 

"come in..."
where your
teardrops are sacred,
where silence is
golden,
and you are
His own.

slip deeper,
and deeper
beneath all the churning
let deepness engulf
you
let His will be done.

for this is your
country,
your kingdom,
your homeland,
the place where you know
you are never
alone.

yes, there's a vast
yawning,
a chasm within you
an ache,
and a hunger
to know and
be known

“come in
and be silent”
it call from the stillness
come in and
allow Me to
call you My own

there is
a vast yawning,
a depth you
can’t fathom,

a refuge,
a quiet, 
a rest, 
and 

home

"come in 
and find comfort,
come in and find shelter, 
come in 
and find peace
in your 
heart that's 
His 
home.




"...stranger,
thou art the guest
of God."

~ Mary Baker Eddy
