a day

re-examining a day for rest...











So many childhood pathways
lay unexamined, unmaintained.
Now the tracks of an adult
wandering on the same
journey fall uneasily 
into well-worn patterns.

What if you want to walk them this time
with a grandmother's pace?

Light 2 candles
when you see 3 stars
or when you reach the amphitheater
or when you reach home 
   on Sunday afternoon.

Walking by a different light-
a candle's light, a star's light,
the light of 2 more generations.
  
Reframing work
by rest 
by freedom
by calling. 
 
Redeeming a day.

Letting seeds of redemption scatter into our lives

week by week by week.

The kingdom of God is like seed thrown on a field...
