Peaceful Walk



The wind whipped around me,
Refreshing after weeks of humidity.
The sun had already set,
The moon, stars just starting to twinkle over head.
Dusk...and wind...on this All Saints Day.

When in-between the full sun and darkness of starlight.
When in-between the space where everything makes sense and pure mystery.
When in-between the noise of voices clamoring and the quiet center.
Like standing in the doorway, not quite inside or out...but enjoying pieces of both.

That was the walk tonight.
Nothing amazing, life-changing.
Nothing that would constitute a best-selling book.
Nothing that would deserve a re-tweet or thumbs up on Facebook

But in a quiet space of a peaceful walk with the breeze,
There is more than a trace of grace...there is God.

Blessings ~

Hope of sinew

  Way back on November 30 th of last year (which feels like forever ago), we lit a candle of hope.  That wasn’t just some ritual for Advent...
