The Immovable Theophany, an affirmative poem

Notes From the Margins, Numbers 10

By Cloud and Fire, I am led through the wilderness

for in these is His presence contained

the immovable Theophany through my uncertain journey.

He is my navigator, compassing me for He is my hedge

my proverbial Psalm in its 23rd scene

with supernatural pillar posted over me

and reverential guidance covering me

with goodness and mercy pursuing me

I am led to camps of victory.

From captive to inheritor I catapult

I am a study in transition

from bondage to freedom because I belong to Him,

fully surrendered as His beloved.

He is the Moses to my Egypt, my Prophet preferred

the progenitor of promise who hovers

my Protector in the wilderness Who covers

to Whose arch I am covenanted

smothered in His grace until my breath becomes His.

I am breathless.

Immovable until He leads.

In stillness, I remain

until He leads.
