we’re all asking

for direction

to an unknown

destination

full of fear and

imperfection

i want to live

without

hesitation

a life without     limits.

or complications…

that’s just a figment

of my imagination

i’d like to set

a course for

contentment

learn to trust

the process

not my progress

i’m trying harder…

to let go

free-falling softly…

like the snow

hold my hand

open

when I go

to hold on

to what is less

Your gifts are

perfect Father

i confess You

melt our bitterness

like rain You

wash away

our sorrows

and our stains

You make

a masterpiece

from our messes

turning ashes

into party dresses

so we praise You

Father as You

bless us

we lift our voices

and sing out

our confession

“Your grace is

greater than

transgression

Holy Spirit fill us

till we spill out

with Your presence”
