In This Wildnerness
In this wilderness I see Direction
where God’s truth sifts the leaves
and sings humanity’s song of Belong.
Where Alone
never leaves me empty or afraid,
where guardian energy is spoken
by the trunks, the branches, the eternal green
of these life-giving trees—
where the eyes of living beings
brighten as they reach the havens
of the love-flowing rivers—
where Pain and Purpose are both found
in a mother bear’s unwavering strength.
Where the mountains stand so brazen—
I hear the beings of the forest
speak of His genius—flocks of birds
flying in uniformity and unfathomable rhythms—
the heart of Truth is in His creation
where Love never ceases to inspire.
Let me rest where the trees upward gaze,
seeking your setting sun in the eyes of waiting night.
In Your Trust I can end the day on a drifting breeze—
in Your Trust I can fully be at blissful ease,
as You pave the paths to imminent Peace.
