Slowly but surely

I see positive changes all around me

You have restored my soul

I am free, and I am found

Now I am one who rejoices

My heart cannot contain

This fire that burns within

Yet let my passion be tempered by grace

An awareness of where the other is at

Never let me forget how to

Weep with those who weep,

Hold the light for those in darkness

How to sit with the unknown

Endure the awkward places

Stand in the gap

Hold the space for the discovering

Hold the space for healing…

There is discomfort in the process of discovering

True comfort is found in you alone
