sitting moment

each person
sits next
to their own
pool of tears

writing moments

writing is like sitting down
pen in hand
and opening a vein
enabling a transfusion from writer to reader

sometimes it is the vein of fear that must be opened
because that is where the life is flowing

separate moment

each string of a guitar is separate
alone
even while quivering with the same song ..............

sad moment

I am saddened in the knowledge
that so many find it easy to carve 2 days out of their packed schedules
to attend a prophetic conference
in the hopes of hearing a personal "word" from God
and yet
these same folks
find it so hard
if not impossible
to simply take some moments
each day
to sit with God
listen
and hear from Him directly ........

calling moment

Love is calling me ....
by name

to a place of radical surrender
filling the rooms in my soul
those places
that still lived in underground anguish

answer moment

don't search for answers which cannot be given now
because we are not yet able to live them
live the questions now
perhaps some day in the future
we will gradually
without even noticing it
live our way into the answer

optional moment

if we do not transform our pain
we will surely transmit it

here moment

and He departed from our sight
that we might return to our heart
and there find Him
for He departed
and behold
He is here

St. Augustine
