Presence 8: Arts That Inspire Reflection & PrayerSample

Change
There are moments
When change arrives
Unseen,
Startling in its reach,
Unsettling
In the questioning of certainties,
Old ground, once trusted,
Shifts,
The familiar in free-fall.
Hold me
Through the unsettled,
The unresolved,
The letting go of yesterday.
Give me courage
To be at peace
In this not-yet place.
Allow my heart to still.
Let time shape my becoming
Unhindered by a need to know,
The unfolding of tomorrow
Free of the ghosts of regret.
Ground me in an emerging landscape
Of discovery and renewal;
Grow me
In this fertile soil of disruption
Of truth waiting to be known.
Chris Matthews
