manna from heaven

i am delirious with the soft falling of snow on my face...
God's daily dose of inspiration
descending in white frozen flakes today.
He always provides rest for my heart, food for my soul.
sometimes it comes through technicolor dreams.
sometimes it arrives with scarlet wings at my window.
today it blankets my space with soft, white snow.
and i am reveling in this silence -
this mystical freezing of noise and time.

sometimes i feel so deliciously whole

but then the snow melts and unleashes muddy rivers.
i fear unraveling.
as walls are destructed one by one, will my foundation hold me?


i long for His wisdom....
it's not always clear if i'm laboring in my own vanity or on the solid rock that is unmovable.
but i want to make my days count for eternity....
i want my life to have a pleasing scent....

and to do that, i need many moments in the quiet snow.
