Pause for Prayer: SUNDAY 7/22

Walden Woods: photo by Chuck Clough

How peaceful this path
softly shaded from the heat,
well worn by other's steps,
a carpet made of joys and sorrows
spilled along the way
to a place deep in the woods
where you, Lord,
in your patience
wait for me...

How peaceful this path
drawing me deeper
into the forest of your myst'ry
to a quiet, hidden secret place
where you, Lord,
in your patience
wait for me...

And come the day I'm homebound
or clouds give way to rain and I am lost,
far from this secluded leafy grove,
then beat a path within me
and beckon me to join you
in a softly shaded clearing
in the forest of my heart
where you, Lord,
in your patience
wait for me...

Amen.
