Inexplicable Ways

• Song of the Builders

  On a summer morning
  I sat down
  on a hillside
  to think about God--
  a worthy pastime
  Near me, I saw
  a single cricket;
  it was moving the grains of the hillside
  this way and that way
  How great was its energy
  how humble its effort
  Let us hope
  it will always be like this
  each of us going on
  in our inexplicable ways
  building the universe.
  
  
  --Mary Oliver

   This is one of several songs I sing to Jack at night. During our book study I have been thinking a lot about the concept of being a debtor to Grace. Seems counterintuitive. Constraint and fetters are not words I think of when I think about Grace, but there is something beautiful about the thought of willfully binding yourself to a God who gave you that will. I don’t know. That’s okay. This will always be one of my favorite hymns.
