Just now...

  Just now, we are thankful for the powerful message of The Giver;
a story that gives much to ponder.
Just now, we are thankful for the power of the page and of story,
for like chalk dust, a good story makes vibrant what it touches.
 Just now, we are thankful for rest.
 Just now, the waves loom large.
The opening feels narrow and restricted.
 But light illuminates the way. Rise above.
 Just now, we are busy fording streams. 
Confident of His grace.
Just now, we are making new discoveries.
Just now, we choose to rest rather than resist.
We choose vulnerability and trust.
Just now, we choose to be. Still. Like the rocks.
Just now, we cherish the small moments, 
for indeed they are the moments.
He is the Rock, the rock eternal. Upon Him shall we stand. Strong.
The waves may pound, but they will not overcome us.
We are on the Rock.
