How Silently

June 9, 2014 By Juanita Ryan 1 Comment

Like a slight breeze
stirring a lace curtain at an open window,

like a blue winged dragonfly
setting off a single ripple across a still lake,

like a first snow fall
descending soft, hushing all,

so you are with us,
achingly gentle
in your touch, your voice, your presence
moving in us,
awakening us to you.

——

Because of the tender mercies of our God…
the rising sun will come to us from heaven.
Luke 1:78
