Friday, March 26, 2010 ~ Thirty-third Day of Lent

Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place. With the Lord on my side I do not fear. Ps. 118:5-6


Closed in by life

The day to day presses in on us

Until we fall, weary

Into restless slumber

Only to begin again…


Longing for that broad place

That unclosed space

We call on God

And openness occurs

And fear recedes

God stands with us

Keeping the day to day at bay

Freedom for the asking

~ Martha Campbell

Let us pray

God, we ask for the passing of fears and the opening of new life. Amen.
