~ God told me to be an artist, week 67.
Friday 12th April, 2024.
This week I have a little poem for you, and it's all about peace.
Hope it brings you a little stillness in these crazy times.
--
Turns out peace is a choice,
it's available,
invite it in,
use your voice.
For so long we've discarded it,
it sits left untouched,
like a dress in its packaging,
separated for the perfect day or the exact right fit.
Like a shadow peace lingers,
moving in a moment,
tangible like the breeze,
feel it move as it rushes through your fingers.
This peace persistently beckons us,
we sit and ignore it,
turning our heads,
tapping our fingers we rhythmically percuss.
Determined to move alone,
we stumble through each blow,
deciding peace is not for us,
this season is indeed a war zone.
It's hard to imagine a state of more stillness,
in the midst of such sadness,
amongst striving and failure,
holy spirit we need you please come fill us.
Turns out peace is something that can free us,
more than that,
it's a person,
and his name is Jesus.

Maybe invite some peace into your life this week. Whether you believe in God or not, try taking a deep breath and asking for some peace.
You'll be surprised what comes back when you use you voice and ask for this gift.
See you next week, Cath x
