Complete & Unconditional Surrender to God

uncomfortable

the precipice of growth

the wind screaming

I strive to find the calm waters,

daily

thrashing around

fists clenched

suddenly

a caterpillar comes to my doorstep

lackadaisically making its way along

what do you have to tell me?

well

there are no obstacles

only opportunities

is the grueling climb worth it?

it always is

but the tossing and turning?

everything has a reason

for the season

fear not, fret not

you do not have to understand it all

the journey is here for you

the wind now slapping

with no rhythm

no longer grabbed by my shoulders

and shook violently

stillness in flight

silence

a becoming

of grand proportions

is taking place

will I ever get there?

that’s not the point

a disjointed jolt

please, human mind

don’t revolt

aligned

divine presence

the closest thing to surrender

letting go, letting be

so that I may see

steadfast and true

that You are here for me

always

now wait a second

do You create my thoughts or do I?

how much responsibility can You really claim here?

All of it

what’s it?

All

as if preparing for a battle call

I gather the energy of All

so that even if I fall

I stay enthralled

the layers like bark 

peeling away

as a bear claws for honey

past times runny

now drenched in yolk

a voice so strong it spoke

thank You

the hummingbird’s caress

I digress
