A Beautiful New Poem by John Thornburg

Check out this beautiful new poem from the amazing poet, John Thornburg:

CALLED TO PONDER MYSTERY

If everything were known,
if we could quantify the 'why',
explain the 'how' and name the 'when',
then nothing would remain
but naming who was rightest of the right,
and blaming those who got it wrong.
Know this alone;
Emmanuel.
The One who made us came to us.
It is enough.
