There will come a time
When one must slow down
To release the reigns
Not only feel the wind
But stop & smell what it brings
A shift in season
Seeing that change brings suffering
Yet also beauty
As the autumn brings death
With glory in its leaves.

another year gone by
more lessons in betrayal
this time it’s my body
that has turned her head
yet here I am
continuing towards something
still waking up every day
priorities continually shifting
yet always coming back
to a few specific things
maybe it’s a gift
the constant reminder
of what very little is true.

I long to lead a simple life
At home surrounded by babies & art
Writing & peace
Unbothered
A simple life
Is not what I was given
It is struggle and toil
Trials and pain
Yet opportunity blooms
Inside of the gloom
To press into the wounds
To see what God is doing
Where He is going
With these burdens we bear
The changes we can make
The impact that is left
Somehow must be worth
The fight.

On this All Souls’ Day
We plead, we pray
We call Your name
As we step on leaves
Whose time has passed
They slowly rejoin the earth
Allow our hearts to feel
The sorrow of loss
Yet the hope of Your light
As eternity peeks into our shadow
A small, burning ray
Into a vast, deep cave
I feel Your hand join mine
You call us forward
Each painful moment to feel & share
Your love.
