day 55: after

in the moment of encounter, there wasn't just peace or revelation or fire or awakening or fear or conviction or awe

there was God, and He is all those things and more.

-

there was a mountain and the land beneath it,

and above the slopes of the mountain there was a great cloud

and rain poured out from this cloud and onto the mountain.

and from the mountain the water carved its path and flowed to the land

and the water flowed between the trees of the forest surrounding the mountain

and then it flowed even further, into the plains and the deserts

and the rain continued to pour and the land became flooded

even in the furthest places the water flooded

even in the deepest places, the water flooded more.

then you could not even see the land anymore, only the mountain and the great cloud

for everything else was under the water,

and then it stopped raining.
