to trace God's hand on my life
RELENTLESS
WIND*
Leona Choy
THE WIND has blown through
my life
from infancy through all
the changing years
propelling me
along the paths of time.
Sometimes gently
whispering
Sometimes urgently
redirecting me
altering my self-planned
course
to thrust me
along new paths of time.
THE WIND blew unrecognized
through my innocent
childhood years.
In youth's impetuosity oft
withstood
by the stubbornness of my
self-will
as I stumbled
along my private paths of
time.
In prime and senescent
years
THE WIND continues to blow
lovingly, patiently
in spite of my resistant
humanity.
RELENTLESS WIND:
Grant me the grace to live
this allotted span of
earth-time
given me so munificently
to accomplish some small
portion
of God's Kingdom destiny
bringing me ultimately
to behold His face
in Eternity.
