Into This Peace I Stumble

by Barret Hedeen

Into this peace
I stumble and fall
Awkward and clumsy
— not sure at all.

I gaze at the light.
It hurts my eyes
And so I settle for
emptiness, lies

And wander adrift
on this empty sea
Miles of unbroken
nothing before me.

My eyes crusted over
and heart in a knot
Struggling to hold on to
all that I got.

I gave up and lay down,
preparing to sink
And then what occurs
is not what I think.

A hand comes beneath me
— holding me up
And into the clouds do we go
— up, up! up!

As despairing I’d been
— it now is reversed
Where once had been bad
— it’s good! Not the worst!

Now I’ve been lifted
right to the Big Guy
And so I look at Him,
right in the eye

And ask Him this question
that I need to know
Where, oh where God
— oh where did you go?”

And now He answers.
It blows me away
— I’m here within You
— what else can I say?”

And then it is done.
He touched me deeply
And helped me see
that that touch come from Me.
