I Wrote This Poem Called “the Calvinist” To Capture A Glimpse Of God’s Sovereign Intersection With The Life Of A Sinful Man. There Is No Part Of Life Where The Greatness Of God Does Not Penetrate Deeply. I Want To Help You Feel That.

I Wrote This Poem Called “the Calvinist” To Capture A Glimpse Of God’s Sovereign Intersection With The Life Of A Sinful Man. There Is No Part Of Life Where The Greatness Of God Does Not Penetrate Deeply. I Want To Help You Feel That.

Glimpse

It Was Becoming Clearer And Clearer That If I Wanted To Come To The End Of My Life And Not Say, “i’ve Wasted It!” Then I Would Need To Press All The Way In, And All The Way Up, To The Ultimate Purpose Of God And Join Him In It. If My Life Was To Have A Single, All-satisfying, Unifying Passion, It Would Have To Be God’s Passion.
