A Blessing


May love come and get you.

In the secret place,
be friendly and kind
to whoever you find there,
and trust that God has it covered.


When you find yourself empty-handed,
Know the remaining love of God;
Rest take you by one hand,
And Peace by the other,
And lead you to lie down in those
Promised-of green pastures.
Let them show you the way to that
'River of delights'
So you might feast on it.
It is yours to drink from.

I pray you will know
the surrounding, settling and
Soft love that is yours;
Courage - a key for the lock.

No matter how small or crushed it feels,
There is always your heart,
And for this we give thanks.


Grace,
and peace.
