Interchange

The loss of God is the loss of everything;
And in having God , we have everything.
His overflowing fullness is our inheritance;
And in nearness to Him, we enjoy that fullness.
He can not speak to us,
But some of that fullness flows in;
We can not speak to Him,
Without attracting His grandeur towards us:
This mutual communion, is that which forms
 The medium of access between heaven and earth.
Man looketh up, and God looketh down:
Our eyes meet; and we are.
In the twinkling of an eye,
Made partakers of the Divine abundance.
Man cries out to God what he feels,
God speaks out to man what He feels:
The finite and the Infinite minds
Thus interchange their sympathies;
Love meets love;
 Mingling and rejoicing together,
The Full pours Itself into the empty;
And the empty receiveth the full.
