There was a moment in time,
when the Lord was with me,
with us.
There was unity.
And for the first time,
it felt okay
to stop striving
and struggling
all by this self.
There was trust.
Trust in the people,
in the circumstances.
Somehow everything will work out,
beauty arising from ashes,
and heavenly vision, seen to the very end.
How amazing
to be a witness
of the community
coming together,
working together,
and dedicating each and every talent and difference
towards same goal.
And in that moment,
we become something bigger,
greater
than ourselves.
Eyes wide opened,
can't help but to stare incredulously at marvel of creation.
And then, joy.
