Wordless

I wish I could capture
This moment;
Put it in a little glass cube
So I could be reminded
All the time
Of the wordless Ecstasy
Of being in Your
Frighteningly holy
Yet
Encompassingly loving
Presence.
Like
Embracing a waterfall
Or
Lying safely between a lion's paws
Or
Sitting atop a rainbow
Without falling through...
But still I am wordless
And need
To resort to
Comparisons.

- Rebecca Yoder

A Prayer of Breakfast

Breakfast with a friend
Coffee
"I'll take a "Henrietta's favorite"
"Same here - on wheat"
Stories of faith, hope, and memories
Of finding God at strange places
Of Him finding us at even stranger places
"That's interesting, I've been thinking the same"
Coffee
"I couldn't say this to just anyone"
What scandalizes one builds faith in another
Keeping company. Not 2, but 3
Coffee
"See ya later. I love you man"
In Jesus' name, Amen
