He Creates

space, emptiness, devoid of contents;
He is there…ever knowing, all seeing, all powerful;

He…who is He?;
master, creator, judge, father;
omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent;
who was, who is, who will always be;

thoughts of creation;
swirling;
it begins;

He creates;
wind over water blows;
heavenly voice...light;
separation begins;

Who Designated You

We have designated drivers and designated hitters
But where are the designated cowboys? 
The designated artists?
The designated illustrators? 
The designated astronauts?  
The designated dancers?

Is it the child or a parent? 
A mentor? A committee?...
