Trust & Hope

Where do God, Grace hide?
Here, and there, and everywhere.
Up to good old tricks.

…

Awesome, amazing,
among all that’s possible.
Coincidental?

…

Uncertainty, doubt.
We know little, if at all.
Ergo, faith and hope.

…

Yes, to trust fully.
Yes, to surrender, let go.
Yes, holding high hopes.

…

Faith and trust and hope
inspire, and instigate.
They turn on the lights.

…

Investing it all,
guided by the bright North Star.
We take the next step.

…

The way is scary,
the path is steep, treacherous.
Hope, fuel for the road.

… 

To inhale with trust,
to sigh with faith in goodness,
and to smile with hope.

To await with faith.
To trust the guidance given.
To release, let go.

…

Bridges link and span,
reach out to the other side, 
in good faith, trusting.

…

Fearful and furious, 
we scare and hurt each other, 
while Mother Earth burns.

Faithful and curious, 
we soothe, care for each other, 
and Mother Earth heals.

… 

Awesome planet Earth,
what are we doing to you?
Amazing. Ailing.

… 

Entrusting them all.
Flora, fauna, mineral.
Hoping they make it.

We turn them to You.
Human beings and planet Earth.
We will do our part.

…

Eager, expectant,
standing vigil patiently.
Hanging hope on hope.

…  

Minimum wage work.
Some buy lottery tickets. 
Hoping against hope.

… 

We don’t know enough 
to call it quits and give up.
Hope improves our odds.

Goodness bets on hope,
trusting we won’t drop the case.
That’s how progress works.

…

Take on all comers,
in our hearts as in commerce, 
with faith and courage.

… 

Trusting the Goodness,
or, better said, the isness, 
helps us face the rest.

…

Blinded by bright light,
we can see with more than eyes,
and take the next step.

We give ourselves up,
to surprise, to joy, to awe,
and take a blind leap.

…

Things do, will settle.
Meanwhile, there's tasks, errands, breath.
Every fresh new day.

… 

Trusting bestows hope,
what was good is then enhanced.
Sister, brother, dance!
