The Looming of the unknown in our lives appears to be large, strange and painful.
And in one moment in one day, things change suddenly. 

Like the air that is whisking by and then grows still.
Like the noisy world that recedes, and moves in silence.
Like a silent promise planted in a seed.

Everything changes.

We hold our breath, not in a fearful dread
But knowing that where the Word of God is whispered, it has been read.

Now the stage is set; however, nothing seems to shift.
And waiting in Grace is a monumental gift.
As we watch the sky, we see that the stars are alone.
We look for power from the unseen throne.

For every doubt that tries to take root in me,
I see the strength that bears every eternal and spiritual fruit.

The gentle nudge, the sudden, sweeping tide,
Reminds me of the quiet hand that turns wit is inside.

So, I acknowledge the Holy Spirit is moving within me.
As the Lord, My God walks by my side, He gives me Peace
