ps-Almighty: Becoming

Many moments
across a lifetime
we will be probed
by the God of our becoming,
“Who do you say that I am?”

Do not cheat—
give someone else’s answer.

Choose honest words…
the ensuing conversation leads to
living water.

Keep answering…
the concentric rings of your
determining
will become a
sturdy trunk.
