Bricks

We are merely bricks

Simply part of the multilayered structure

In this cosmic manor called infinity

We are just elements and the masonry

Of a larger identity

Known as the Divine

Yes, each of us is important and invaluable

But ultimately, we are nothing more than

Building materials for God’s kingdom

Every brick is needed to maintain the

Strength and integrity of this holy temple

Every brick has a purpose

Every brick is needed

But we are not diamonds

We are not gemstones

We are not special stars in the sky

Our individuality is secondary

To what we are here to do

We are merely bricks

Placed perfectly in the Universe

Held together by the mortar of God’s grace
