Meeting Grace

Grace
tip toes in
and gives you a grin
peaking from in front of you
and then behind
again
running around you
with roses
and silly poses
saying," hey!
hey! hey! I'm here."

Even when we blindly look away
or act like we can't hear
and sometimes we can't
and the world turns on a slant
and Grace seems to slip away
but it stays

Grace received- "charis", joy
not achieved by the perfect love story
or boy
but in the anchoring
deep down
into the soil of goodness
which is churning
and burning
the things not of him
and boy does that make our skin
swim
and creep
and makes us want to sleep
but in the end
we come out perfectly new
and that is what Grace always wanted to do. 

Learning more and more everyday through my wonderful church and equally great friends the intricacies and character traits of the God that has lovingly picked me up and held me in the hardest of times- and his grace has never left. Let him guide you in whatever time you are and it will be a beautiful time in your life (that's my prayer!).
