Measured By God

Spoken Intro soft music

Isaiah 40, verse 22.

"He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth."

Spoken Verse 1 slow

I saw myself seated, not standing, not striving,

placed on top of a drawing protractor.

At first it moved slowly, in a perfect circle,

as if Heaven were measuring the angle of my life,

checking the alignment, making sure I was centered.

Spoken Verse 2 music begins to swell

Then it quickened.

The slow turning became swift,

and I knew — what was being prepared in quiet

was now being released in motion.

Spoken Bridge gentle lift

I was not afraid, for I was seated.

I was not steering, for I was being carried.

The circle did not break me, it completed something in me.

Spoken Outro soft, peaceful

Lord, measure me true.

Turn me toward hope.

And when the speed increases, remind me

I am still held at the center.
