A week when….

November 19, 2017 by Chris Gribble

I stopped to consider my week for a few moments. I am sure all of us could add our own words here. But then I considered what love says. I loved thinking about how love responds to what went on in my life over this past week.

A week when,
The tax bill, phone bill, electricity bill and car rego arrive on Monday,
Love says, I have enough for you,
A phone call in the middle of the night and a family is crying out for help,
Love says, welcome to my home and I understand,
Surrounded by people when all I want is to be alone,
Love says, I have a space for you,
Feeling like I missed the point in a conversation and look really stupid,
Love says, this will pass quicker than what you think,
Watching my most precious gift graduating into wondering what’s next?
Love says, trust her life with me,
Overwhelmed, inundated and feeling like failure is only a heartbeat away,
Love holds all this in hands that created eternity,
A week that asks me what must die in me now?
Love says, this is what I am willing to do for you.
