The Ultimate Became Intimate

Date added: 29/05/2020

THE ULTIMATE BECAME INTIMATE

God became poor;

God plumbed the depths;

God used body language;

God used means to save mean people;

God came as a foreigner to earth for our benefit;

God crossed the widest cultural chasm in the cosmos;

Meaning became matter in a moment,

Matter became movement,

Meaning moved us.

Matter matters for God,

For the Ultimate became intimate.
