God's Not Dull

If we want a friend with whom
we'll never grow bored
The best one to recommend
is Jesus our Lord

Although some experiences
may hit a lull
The more we get to know Him
the less He seems dull

The closer we get
the more Beauty discovered
The more silence we share
the more is His Love heard 

Till we get involved
we tend to ignore history
So open the Bible
and enter the Mystery

Can we imagine being there
where Jesus walked?
What would we say to Him
when He found us, and talked?

Which characters can we see 
ourselves in their shoes
We've got so much to gain
and not too much to lose

It's hard to visualize 
the Cross-- it's so gory
We hurt our Best Friend :(
but there's more to His Story

Our souls have a canvas
with more room for painting
Neverending Mercy 
--ongoing Aquainting



[Inspired to write this when I read Chapter 5 in:
"What We Believe: The Beauty of the Catholic Faith"
by Marcellino D'Ambrosio and Andrew Swafford]
