Wayfarer

Sometimes I think of Abraham How one star he saw had been lit for me He was a stranger in this land And I am that, no less than he And on this road to righteousness Sometimes the climb can be so steep I may falter in my steps But never beyond Your reach

Quake

A sudden quake may strike:
Your innards quiver
Turmoil stirs
Your heart may beat
A little
Quicker

And breath may be
Short, shallow

And you - you are weak,
An unanchored mass
Of tectonic uncertainty
Who shifts with the slightest
Change in pressure

Hold: firm. There is One
Whose presence is like
Concrete. He knits
Together
That which shifts, and binds
That which shakes.

Let quaking cease. The One
Holds all.
