A new call to Trust

Trust Him, that words will come.

Trust Him, every tear is bottled.

Trust Him, that no stroke of the pen is wasted, it is living and active, it will accomplish.

Trust Him, that suffering is building endurance, character, and hope.

Trust Him, when words fail and apologies are needed.

Trust Him, for wrongs of omission and choosing.


Trust is needed

as steps of faith
follow an unseen Shepherd
down a narrow way.


Trust Him,

when Kijabe wind sweeps

dust into crevices [weaknesses]

I'd rather leave untouched.

Trust Him with seeing.

Knowing,

where am I going that lacks your breadth, height, depth?


Amidst itching, grief and confusion,
pity at suffering

and anger at injustice,

You are near.
