WHY YOU LEAVE YOUR NETS AND FOLLOW
(Matthew 4: 12-23)
Because your hope for that kingdom
has teased the edge of your thoughts
the way waters tease the edge of the shore
because his words stir that hope
in the depths of your soul
the way wind stirs the waves of the sea
because you sense that his love
like a sea without bounds
is as large as the needs of the world
and because he’s called you by name
and the heart in you swims
toward that love, toward joy, toward home
