Abiding in Christ. Walking by faith.

Speechless

Deathly pale in light of the vision. No strength.

Alone and overwhelmed to the point of exhaustion, Daniel drops. Face to the ground.

Powerless. Speechless. Unable to breathe.

And the Lord responds to His servant. With tenderness and strength.

Some days, when it can’t get any worse, it does. Leading to a complicated grief.

This tangled story of deception is not ours alone.

No. All along the darkening path, we meet others who know. And understand.

In the bare bones
of a waking day,
I sit.

Still.

War and rumors of war advancing.
Overtaking.
