Thinking....

A  breeze and warm sunshine

Heavy clouds and crashing waves

Nature's beauty welcoming

Golden rays marking day's end

Time passes


Souls searching and Spirit touching,

Questions finding answers,

Families laughing, sharing, praying,

Paths crossing, friendships form,

Time becomes memories.

Emptiness discovers new meaning,

Direction and focus become clear,

Hearts broken become whole,

Life has value and persons meaning,

Time opens the possible.

A place set aside - holy ground,

Each person celebrated, accepted,

An oasis, safe and welcoming,

A Center embracing and releasing,

Time is for listening.

A heart tugging, distant whisper,

A gentle voice of affirmation,

The challenge to grow and change,

All you burdened, come, hope,

Time is the space where God speaks.

Life brings changes, surprises.

Visions are altered, new realities appear.

Nurtured faith becomes nurturing

Blessings now shared give other life.

Time is where we must speak Good News
