#faithjourney
An air-breathed; an end be near?
Life… a riddle held in the lungs;
Love, a rhythm two hearts hum—
That dare to follow that drum.
My faith never came early—
Late-believed; that fragile gift,
Born from two shaking legs—
Knees trembling like leaves in wind,
Yet somehow… so fairly conceived.
These eyes have seen sunlight spill
Over quiet mornings; the mouth reaches
To taste what sweetness time is storing;
The ears lean toward laughter, toward
Whispers that tickle the soul; the nose
Finds truth in the air, untouched,
Unspoiled, whole;
But the touch of it all… so fleeting,
So fickle—like holding warm water
That slips through your hold.
And still, we gather these breaths
Into words; to pass young wisdom
To our young… in sentences carried
On air— an heir-breathed.

Preparation Reassures
***
We ready our steps in trust,
laying small stones of intention.
Perhaps faith meets us on the path,
quietly blessing the work
we dared to begin.
Reflection
***
I prepare for everything now—
plans, backups, contingencies—
as if careful steps could fill the space
where trust used to live.
There was a time
when I believed
I didn’t walk alone,
that my efforts met grace halfway.
I’ve wandered from that place,
but sometimes,
when I’m laying out the pieces
of my life,
I feel the echo
of that old partnership.
Maybe faith isn’t gone.
Maybe it’s waiting for me
to stop relying
on my own strength
long enough to notice
it still walking beside me.

I lose my shape, shattered
In turmoil, deeply battered
Beneath my veil, head bowed and tattered.
I lose my way, defeated
In steps that forget to plead,
In anger blind to its misdeeds.
O Master of the Universe,
I am lost,
Forgotten the path of obedience.
O Ruler of the Horizon,
At Your door, I knock in submission,
To embrace the light of devotion.
