The answered call

I call, and God always answers
with unfailing, loving, gentle guidance
that quiets my fear,
reminding me of the truth of my being,
forgotten in the noise of the moment.
With my feet now firmly back on the eternal path,
understanding dawns
as angel messages break through the fog—
this is Love’s answer to my call.
