Resting

New Year’s Eve 2000



               
Resting. 
You have brought me to a resting place. 
Quiet. 
You have brought me to a silent, quiet place. 

You have caused me to be patient,
Not caring if I am noticed or understood. 
You have given me confidence in the certainty of your purposes,
Not just in me, but in everyone around me. 
Secure in your purposes,
I am watching as you unfurl the life in all its beauty,
In its mystery and its grace;
A beautiful path that we travel 
As we make our way to Zion.
