Listening Ears




Spring...!

 
Silent I have been.
Silent for a reason.
Growing I have been...
knowing it's a season.

For three months my blog has waved without me.  Its colors remained true.  Its pages told their own story, and I, I searched for mine.  My quest for answers and my pondering mind reveal a new identity that happened while I was not paying attention.  Without my knowledge, without my awareness... it just happened.

Youth ask, "Who am I?"  Age states, "I am."  Some ask, "Why?"  Some say, "It is."

As for me, my silence allowed me to listen.  Boldly it spoke.  It told me that I have made it through the winter, and while there... I was not alone.  The strength required and the stamina profound were manna from heaven.  I gathered it and consumed it voraciously without paying attention to the Giver, for my attention was demanded by my tasks. 

But, my winter is over, and with vision sharpened by my listening ears, I know, I know without a doubt Who provided the means and the way and the manna.  To God be the glory!  To God be the praise!  I was, and I am not alone.

Silent I have been, but not so today, for it is my season to say... "What now, now that I have crossed over the bridge of "what was & what is"?  Praise be to God from whom all blessings flow!  Praise God for this season!

Call me wiser,
and call me a grateful woman...
