a glimmer …
Sometimes hope looks like …..
a sparkling clean Suburban
an hour spent playing soccer with friends
an unexpected letter in the mail
a kind text
the lyrics to a song
morning cuddles with the softest downy headed fellow
generous children doing their chores without complaints
friends serving up waffles and pancakes for breakfast for my children
a familiar passage of scripture
sunshine and blue skies

Glimmers of hope
Shimmering iridescent
Just out of reach
Oh I need to catch them
Fingers grasping
Breathless Running
Oh I need to catch them
Fluttering butterflies
Swooping now swarming
Oh I need to catch them
Tears streaming back
Arms reaching up
Oh I need to catch them
And little by little I see
Stop.
Stop running and stumbling.
Stop desperately seeking.
Stop clutching and grasping.
And
Oh my God, I need only You.
I.
Choose.
Trust.
We are saved by hope.
Hope that is seen
(Or caught)
is not hope.
-a worthy and as yet
unattained goal-
Even so come quickly Lord Jesus.
