Isn’t amazing what a little wind can do!
Blow away some blossoms or move a great choo-choo.
It comes in just a whisper,
Or from a raging storm,
With frigid cold in winter,
Or filled with tropic warm.
And yet we never see it,
It comes and goes unseen,
We feel it move upon our skin,
Or watch the rain careen
Carried by its power,
To crush and push and strain,
And when it comes with mighty force
Its noise is like a train
That comes with sheer destruction.
Not much can stand its might
And when it comes before the dawn
Its terror causes fright.
We cannot stand against it,
‘tis best to hide in holes
For no one can establish
Its purpose or its goal.
And if we think about it
Our God is like the wind,
When God decides to act on high
No power can rescind
Decisions made in heaven,
Nor stop the flow of life,
The pattern that has been so set,
Comes cutting like a knife.
But in our God is mercy,
A source of love and care,
A knowing source of wisdom
That offers justice fair.
And Christ is our example,
The way that we should live,
A path that we can follow
As only God can give.
So listen to the wafting
Of breeze that does not cease,
And feel the gentle nudging
That moves us towards God’s…
Peace,
