Jubilee
Vision, clarity, direction,
gratitude, receptive heart,
Life gently weaves a web of wholeness,
and what the locusts have devoured,
now with courage gained in Christ,
from ruined harvests I depart.
Holding on to persons,
taking things for granted,
halts the wheel of progress--
rolling to unfold
life, truth, selfless love.
A purpose thrives
in what the Creator upholds and feeds,
increase, not lack,
whereto His wisdom leads.
