Like a first star,A first faint glimmer of dawn,On the opening of a long-closed shutter—Comes the visionOf what life truly rests on.

The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.

Infinitely sustained

Wait,not doubting.

Prayer for prayer

Worn out,Yearning for spiritual food,And trying to pray so hard,I came to point where, like a flash in dark obscurity,A wonderful idea made room for itself:
