the critical point in a situation, process, or system beyond which a significant and often unstoppable effect or change takes place
Meriam Webster I've been shepherded to a point From which I do not want to return, For my Beloved has beckoned me, Has opened the eyes of my heart To the beauty of His love in such a way That numbness no longer has final say, For my heart has been made new. Love does not force, Love gives every opportunity. "Will you take another step with Me?" Yes, my love, I'll take another step, For you have always been trustworthy, You have always been faithful, You have always been honest, giving freely. At every step the cost is everything, again, For there is no resurrection Without real and full death. Die daily to live abundantly, Die daily to taste and see That the daily bread of His presence is good, Die daily and find Him worthy who died once for all. My long-suffering Love, You forgave my debt of five thousand, So I choose to steward these five talents well, You saved me from sin, From the bondage of self-centeredness, You choose to regard me through yourself. My Lord, I bend to your sovereignty, I yield to the way you see, I step forth in this desolate place And let your love unravel the graveclothes That have swallowed me until now Now, let what is mortal be swallowed up By life.
