May I Drown Myself in You

“Submerge beneath My Living Waters

Sink deep into My Watery Depths

Listen to what you hear there

In the Deep.

When you have reached

The deepest depth ~

Go deeper.

Sink lower.

Find the darkest part.

The Silence is loudest there.

You can hear Me most clearly

There ~

In the Darkness.

In the lowest spot.

When you find the darkest place,

You will see the Light.

Look for Me

There ~

In the Depths and the Darkness

And the Silence.

There ~

I will speak to you

And reveal Myself to you.”

Oh, Holy Presence!

May it be as I heard it

And saw it revealed to me

Even this day.

Oh, Holy One!

May I be worthy

Of submerging once again

‘Neath Your Living Waters.

May I find an even darker place,

An even lower spot,

An ever more Silent space

In the watery depths.

May I drown myself in You,

So I might live again.
