And Looked: Grace in the Wilderness: Prayers and Poetry

-->

                                               And Looked

                                                When we stand

                                                over the abyss

                                                and look through

                                                our sight

                                                fear freezes us

                                                into statues

                                                unable to move.

                                                When we stand

                                                over the abyss

                                                and look through

                                                His word everything

                                                changes, shifts,

                                                hope dissolves emptiness.

                                                We stretch

                                                out into possibilities

                                                with peace.

Romans 8:26, “And in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.”
