A Glimpse of God

Oct 03, 2026 by Leoma G Gilley, in INSIDE: Reflections
Holy, holy, holy is the LORD God Almighty.
The whole earth is full of his glory

Holiness, purity, perfection, sacred.
As I become aware of this holy being
I am undone, shattered, broken—
so very broken.

How could One such as He
love someone like me?
I am undone, shattered, broken—
so very broken.

The whole earth is filled with his glory!
Yet I am blind, unaware, uncaring—
so very blind.

Open my eyes, my mind, my heart
to see Your glory
to realize Your all mighty power
to believe Your reality
to trust Your control
over this messy, war-torn, unkind, broken world.
We are so very broken.

And despite our disastrous state,
You love us. I don't know why.

You made us and promised to be our God throughout our lives—
to carry us through and save us.

Such mercy, grace, and love—
such great love.

Once again I am undone, shattered, broken,
rescued, restored, forgiven, made new—
being made whole
body, mind, and soul—
made whole.

Indeed, the whole earth is full of Your glory.
