CLOSE

Love to watch you work
All the ways You do
In the middle of the mess
You teach us to rest
Digging in the dirt
Observing the fields
Strengthening the weak
Scattering the seeds
Breaking up the ground
Watering the thirsty
Praying continually
Choosing to love us first
Dressed in this earth
Coming close enough
To let us touch Your scars
And fill us with all You are.
