day 278

 ”’Let us know, let us press on to know the Lord;

    his appearing is as sure as the dawn;
he will come to us like the showers,
    like the spring rains that water the earth.’”  Hosea 6:3

 

when it seems

we have been riding

white-water rapids

that only get more

and more wild, deep,

and filled with boulders

ready to mash us,

let your grace fall on us

like a gentle shower,

which awakens us

to discover we are held

in your comforting arms
