Emptied
and ready for replenishment & rest.
A few days away from a much needed Sabbath rest.
Exhausted and emptied
So deeply in need of replenishment and restoration.
There are still piles of things to complete.
Emails to send.
Things to organize.
And then there will be time …
Time to cry the unshed tears
Of griefs backburner’d for way too long.
Time to sit by the water and let it remind me
of Living Water that quenches all thirst.
Time to walk: one foot before the other,
laying down burdens in the footprints I leave behind.
Time for thanksgiving, renewal, unpacking
burning the things I no longer need
placing the important things front and centre.
Time to prepare nourishing food:
for mind, body and soul.
And remind myself that the Kings men may not know how
to put Humpty back together again.
But God knows.
God.
Knows.
Amen.
