Today' word is "beget" ... (Especially of a male parent) to procreate or generate (offspring). to cause; produce as an effect: a belief that power begets power.
Us
When God rested, on that first sabbath,
all was good, was good. But I wonder ...
had he exhausted all his options?
Run out of ideas, for animals and plants,
and universal moral truths? Was he
satisfied? For the moment. When he looked at his
new world? Did he ... does he, have more
projects going? More worlds to make
and save? Or are we the only
apple of his eye? His really, truly bride.
If so. It would be amazing wouldn't it?
That within all that begettting, we were
intended to be the crowning achievement.
And that despite our wanderings, and
our infidelity, he wants us back.
Apparently, he's not whole without us,
anymore than we are without him.
What do you say when the maker
of the universe chooses you for
his own?
