faithfulness by night

the grey evening light spills down the garden and through the branches of this one particular magnificent narra tree, as i gather my stuff to bring home for the weekend.  it has rained a bit and the earth is still fresh from the thursday rain, good thrusday.  the crew and i took the bus back to baao and recently, we have made this trip often.  and everytime, we have come home safe again.
 
our first week in the project is done and as i look back at the small steady transformation on the grounds, it is easy to believe in the faithfulness of the force i believe in.  the soil is dark rich and my fave corner is starting to green.
   
there are not so many words to say, and i pray that in some miracle way, he will continue to weave his love and faithfulness into my story.
and so this evening, with a keen awareness of the invisible real and the mysterious movement from grey to green, i know that even as i sleep, he overcomes the power of darkness, even in the stark nakedness of the night, i remember and feel his faithfulness through the shades and shadows of the day's end.

thank you for the gift of shared passions. life is made good and colourful!  ilysm!  ♥ ♥ ♥
