October Musing: A Poem

Mid-way through October.
God is stirring hearts in our home;
The lake, which has rested placidly,
Is now stirring with movement.

Yes, He is stirring the waters.

Timings are aligning,
There are new words of encouragement;
His Word is illuminating not just our steps
But, now, our paths.

Yes, we can see a trail ahead.

Prayers for this newness,
This leg of the journey;
Whether this be a new chapter
Or a season change.

Yes, He makes all things new.

Getting under His umbrella,
Making sure we are in alignment--
Prayers that intimate an unwillingness
To do any of this without His help.

Yes, He must walk with us.

This is the month of illumination,
Glimpsing what may lie ahead;
This is the month of divine appointment,
Knowing all has been for what awaits ahead.

Yes, we will follow You, Immanuel.
