A poem on a compass, a pirouette, and six 60ยฐ steps of drawing near to God.

To be a tow vehicle of a realm is to mark the center of a plane, use the dimension of length horizontally, just where you are, to set the compass opening to the required unit of length.

Whatever unit you choose, standing on its pin, and pencil like a dancer's free leg, be it a small or larger movement, perform a 360ยฐ Pirouette.

Arc the heart, Arc the brain, Good with my soul's stomach.

Oh my, did I remember to say that you must make 60ยฐ each time by having a triangle of equal sides?

Keep the compass opening fixed. Step the compass around the circumference.

Each creates a triangle of equal sides, equal to the compass radius.

Quite 60ยฐ in six equal parts.

One for the heart my love.

Two for the brain my mind.

Three for my soul's stomach.

Oh, keep it 360ยฐ, step by step, returning to Him, the same radius and the center of His will.

This will keep every point on the circle the same distance from the center.

Oh, what joy is at the center, to be a moving pencil around at the compass opening to alter my life

in six 60ยฐ steps: Prayer. The Word. Worship. Quiet time. Corporate gathering. Gospel witness.

Just as I love Him with the three-tier of all of me heart, and mind, soulโ€™s stomach.

This poem is written on:

  1. ***Prompts*** 7 (Poetry, anything my imagination wants to create) and 8 (The Best Thing That Happened by Chance).

2.Inspired by Ephesians 3:5:

"God did not reveal it to previous generations, but now by His Spirit He has revealed it to His holy apostles and prophets."
