Midweek: Revealing Grace

The following is one of many beautiful poems written by Leslie Bustard, and lovingly collected in her book The Goodness of the Lord in the Land of the Living:

To Make Visible

To make visible,

glory;

for a moment

see the mystery of eternity

in our ordinary.

To long for the light

and to let it sweep

through shadowed windows,

waiting hearts.

To listen.

To say yes,

let it be as you say it will be.

To wait till the word breaks in,

revealing grace

upon grace upon grace.

~ Leslie Anne Bustard
