I am filled with quiet deeps,
stills and sleeps
and ringing-
Singing bells
have filled the wells
with richness.
The desert land- at last it blooms!
I swim the streams in mossy plumes
and rest in gentle, hidden rooms
When I am near him.
Author notes
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.
Psalm 37:37
I was married May 21st to my dear friend Cliff, who I've known for years. He's a godly man, still and quiet, and very strong. My heart feels so peaceful. I know where I belong, and God's plan is amazing. We keep finding new parts of it. What joy this is!
To my sisters-
Stand firm- this is worth it all. Absolutely.
