When the winds blow

Praying for any in the path of the storms.

Psa 55:8 I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest

The Gate of the Year

God Knows

 ^-Minnie Louise Haskins 

And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: “Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.”
And he replied:
“Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God. That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way.”
So I went forth, and finding the Hand of God, trod gladly into the night.
And He led me towards the hills and the breaking of day in the lone East.

So heart be still:What need our little lifeOur human life to know,If God hath comprehension?In all the dizzy strifeOf things both high and low,God hideth His intention.

God knows. His willIs best. The stretch of yearsWhich wind ahead, so dimTo our imperfect vision,Are clear to God. Our fearsAre premature; In Him,All time hath full provision.

Then rest: untilGod moves to lift the veilFrom our impatient eyes,When, as the sweeter featuresOf Life’s stern face we hail,Fair beyond all surmiseGod’s thought around His creaturesOur mind shall fill.^[1]

a room with a view

I used to pray for a place to sit,
where I could see the sea.
Where I could write a letter
and preserve the bittersweet memory
of you.

I used to dream of a day that dawned,
when I knew the comfort of your nearness.
A time that had no limits, a forever void of fear.

We have always been bound together,
even if for a thousand years
we have not touched.

My heart would recognize you
no matter the disguise.
