Things that have never been



How unique it is
to look out upon
this pregnant emptiness

To hold out hands
cupped to receive
yet
heavy 
with that which is
unnamed

To be gifted
with such a charge,
this scripting of a life?

It is
humbling
and
heroic
and
glorious
and
gargantuan
and
Who
am
I
that
He
is
mindful?

Gingerly
I step out
arms raised
trembling

And from fingers
gilded with sunlight
hope
springs
like
doves

  1. The future holds the unknown and the choices we have yet to make. Such responsibility! How good that God is already there. That is a comfort. Well done!
