All In (from Isaiah 42:1-11)

Lord,
You were "all in"
while you lived
among us...there was
nothing left
that You did not put into play.

You came to bring about
YaHWeH's Own justice on earth.

Like a woman in labor…
a man going into battle,
You were totally
committed
to life...
to YaHWeH...
to us.

Why then is it so easy for us to
live with a half-heart
wondering
why we then end up with
a half-life?
