Midday
Today the light kept changing. The sunrise this morning was a gorgeous light pink, that faded to gold. Throughout the day, the sun played hide and seek with me, casting shadow and light, often with a faint gold tinge. Finally, at sunset, the clouds were completely lined with gold as the sun sank behind a bank of clouds. A simply lovely day. The fields were filled with Canadian geese, the skies with ducks, and the great egrets remained in the field they seem to have claimed for their own, at least for the time being. A white pelican flew overhead as we drove the church, and a kestrel sat on the telephone wire on the way back home.
I am, at the moment, thankful for a number of things. First, my healing, though slow, continues. Second, I have the privilege of seeing this beauty daily. Third, I have a wonderful family and good friends who surround me. And so much more. All this draws me into the presence of God. And casts me back into the world. I want all things healed, all things made well, all things brought into God's presence. This is not for me alone. Wholeness is God's desire, God's yearning, for us all.
