What is Theology?

Day 341 of Des McCabe's Personal Development Exercises

THEOLOGY
 
You don’t have to
go anywhere,
to  be with   God.
He is with you now.
 
You don’t have to
say anything,
to   communicate with God.
For he knows you well.
 
You don’t have to
give any time  to God,
for he is time,
and he gives  this  to you.
 
You don’t have
to believe in God,
for he gives you life
and believes in you.
 
You don’t have to
apologise to God
for he is love,
and has forgiven everything.
 
You don’t have to
ask God for anything,
for it has already
been given to you.
 
You don’t have to
think of God as ‘out there’
for he is already in you,
as you are in him.
