Poetry-as-Prayer

For Day 4 of the CoE #LiveLent Devotional. \\\* All things - the frail and the sturdy, the weak and the strong- hold together, and consist in You Who leaves the saved ninety-nine to find the one; lost sheep who slips into the dark and unclear paths where fear thrives. You offer redemption and finding and saving from the miry clay. Save me.

\\\* May laughter linger here, ring loud in this place where the weight of the burden of living once reigned. May the promise of good news, of sight and freedom come true, bringing life to this thirsty earth.
