For In You (Is There Any Other Thing ?)

Ever You call, past the business of our day. Patient are you , always wanting us to come, and the shallowness that is all else compared to You falls away. For in You, is found true fulfillment, and the answers to ALL we will ever search for. Thinking upon the truth of this brings me close to tears. You, the fulfillment of our days- endeavoring to have each of us empty of ourselves so that through each of our coming days we can continue being filled with You. Is there any other thing to which we would ultimately obtain? All else that we do is a byproduct of Your Life living through us.
