A Moment in Time

LENT DAY 14

Experiencing a
Moment in Time

Feathered branches

Such beauty

Though naked; without leaves.

The sun insists it will not hide behind the clouds;

More lighted patchwork piece

Than a round orb.

Cloud banks with rising wisps as if the smoke of incense

In worship to the sun.

Threat of storm; pause…

Reflecting:

On simple beauty in winter barrenness.

May this help me remember

Even in times I feel surrounded by bleakness;

To pause, reflect, and invite…

My heart to seek light and even warmth

In the beckoning storm.
