I Step Back

I step back,
    and God steps forward.

Less of me
    means more of Mystery, of the Infinite, the Unfathomable.

A silent me
    invites the Still, Small Voice, the Whisper, the Holy Silence.

I fall back,
    and disappear into Eternal Oneness.

You and I--
    we are meant for this.
