Who can describe Heaven?

Proverbs 30:4 

Who has ascended into heaven, or descended?
Who has gathered the wind in His fists?
Who has bound the waters in a garment?
Who has established all the ends of the earth?
What is His name, and what is His Son’s name,
If you know?

 

Who can describe Heaven? ... Only Jesus can

Who knows the Father? ... The answer is the same.

Why are we so smart ... to think we know it all?

Do we know in our brittle frame more than just His Name?

 

Always in a hurry ... why not slow down a bit?

“It is just me” the answer ... but that does not make sense

Is “just me” beyond control ... of my deeper longings.

Is the “me” I’m talking to ... not different from who I am?

 

It seems hard to imagine ... who is saying what

in the divided self it seems ... whom should I believe?

Is it the “me” who’s thinking ... or the “me” who easily angers

without showing that to the world ... who sees only one as “me”?
