But now...
Once
I thought sewing was merely stitching
seams together—the fun part.
I had no concept of the labor:
The caring
about measuring, pinning, accurately
cutting.
Once
I supposed painting a wall a matter
of applying paint—the obvious part.
I had no idea of the preparation:
The caring
about filling holes, protecting trim
and flooring.
And
once
I thought Christian healing was
knowing and saying the right words
—the easy part.
I didn't appreciate the groundwork:
The caring
about the daily living of those words.
