Its dark Lord, much too dark to see
and from the feel of it, this valley
shows no sign of upward sloping.

The wailing of the grieving
pierces my steadfastness.
My words trembling, quaking within
slow my steps to barely
traipsing.

Lord I ask you, lend me wings,
but not to fly free from this lack of
comprehension or for a respite from
this pain, it is but a reprieve
that I seek.
  
Somehow I will find a peace in this trial
that has no end in sight,
my faith whispers reassurance that I
will pass through,

but if it please you Lord, I have need
to fly my words higher, circling them nearer
and nearer to You until I am able
to locate a perch from which to
secure a more palatable
perspective.

Sometimes there is no palatable perspective... but your faith tells you true... you will pass through.
And if you can't find wings... stand on my shoulders.

(big angel hugs) Yes indeed, you shall find that peace through the eyes of faith and through the eyes you will find the light where his and His love beacons and resonates always to you! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
