The Heart That Ponders #17 . . . Head Full of Thoughts . . .12/17/08

Dear Holy friends,
    Imagine late one night, after the house has gone to bed and Mary is trying to find that one position the baby she carries will allow sleep. She gets a leg cramp, the baby kicks, and she decides sleep is not going to happen. Maybe she rises, or maybe she stays on the bed and tries to sort every thought and feeling into an obedient place of rest.

Head Full Of Thoughts

 

sleep eluding

baby moving

leg cramps at night,

body bloating

emotions floating

dreams filled with fright,

world changing

rearranging

not feeling ready at all,

packing gear

time is near

that donkey looks so small,

faith wavering

home savoring

soon is time to go,

Lord blessing

peace caressing

trust more, let worries go.
