Both
Fire and Water
(“So
the angel said to her, ‘Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with
God!’” Luke 1:30)
Tell me what I do not
know about you,
let me hear it from your lips and eyes;
wipe my assumptions, delete my unruly religion
and bring both fire and water
to burn and begin the
renewal within.

The future is frightening;
and yet you are there.
The questions are lightning; but thunder is rare.
The answers are puzzling; but the favored air
imbues today’s suffering; and grace still dwells here.
