If you knew that sorrow could bring life to your soul;
that undisguised truth could tear you apart
and demand a response that requires your life;
that beauty in its greatest sense is only the result
of souls and nations laid bare before God;
that only by giving everything you have will you ever have enough;
if you knew all this, would you surrender?
Would you surrender to the God who demands everything and stops at nothing?

Would you surrender to the Love that demands your love cover over a multitude of sins?

Would you surrender to the life that is not now nor ever was your own?

Would you let God be God?

When the heart is touched by such sorrow as words cannot express,
from shattered misperceptions arises the hope of opportunity.
