a reason
Isaiah 55:11 : so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what i desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.


about
i hope my words are strange and wondrous,
like kisses that quiet all things superfluous,
so that we can all stop and
listen

  becoming
i have made my way back over to the other side of the world.

a solace in running, in moving,
a restlessness i find in my veins,
that i never thought was there.

away from
the past two weeks that have been jam-packed with the way my life has unfolded,
of tiresome and awesome, intertwined into the rhythm of the day.
the blessings are numerous and the roots are spreading and digging
deeper...
into a wordless underground
the spring of ever-rushing joy.

but i am overwhelmed, and i need some quiet,
to put my shoulder to a plow and push till i break a healthy sweat
in silence, save for the stray bird and the sound of wind through a hollow stem of grass.
to fall into a pace with the rhythm of a work, that asks fully for my attention
and none of my heart.
what of the heart?
no questions. no more questions.
i am dropping the present for a breath of the past.

i have been wrong
i have been wronged
i am still here though,
and grace is setting me free.

i am becoming
who i was meant to be.

and the road is rocky,
but God knows,
oh how he knows,
it is so worth trying.
