A life in Christ is
an invitation
to live according to a different rhythm.
It stimulates the courage to
move forward
even when the path seems to crumble
beneath our feet, when every way forward
is shrouded in threat.
The Love of Christ is that embrace which
untangles the anxious heart
and calms the fretful hand
where fears are overruled by confidence and
trembling is tempered
with pardon and permission.
It is the still, deep stream amid
Every tempest that knows
nothing, nothing,
can separate us from the
length and breadth
of Heaven’s reach.
