A Mountain Top Moment

A Mountain Top Moment
“When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully as I am fully known.” –1 Corinthians 13:11-12.
Unique and Unrepeatable
I am.

I am fully known.
“By whom?” I wonder.
Do I know myself fully?
The prayer of many saints disturbs—humbles:
“Lord, help me to know myself.”
Must I pray in such embarrassment that I must ask
Another
About myself?
And, yet, here I am;
Not of my own power,
But by whom I am fully known.
