what if I allowed
myself to trust?
to sit with that feeling
to know
or rather ...
to give God ... and myself ...
the benefit of believing
God is at work
not in timelines
I define or understand
but at work nonetheless
shaping 
transforming
a new spirit within us

For me, the respond movement of our Monday night lectio divina practice often includes writing. Not sure it will happen often, but now that I’ve had a chance to sit with it for a few days this week’s gets to be shared.

The reading was Patient Trust by Pierre Teilahard de Chardin.
