There are times when nothing seems to be happening, and all we could do is wait. It isn’t a particularly easy time, many times it’s even easier for us to be busy doing something rather than wait for the next step or wait for the results of our actions. Yet waiting is a precious time. It is a magnificent pause, a blessed moment.

It’s a time when we can recuperate our strength, a time when we can look back and give ourselves a little pat on the shoulder for a job well done.

Not every moment can be as quiet as this one, so let us avail ourselves of the quiet and the ability to prepare for the exciting challenges to come.

Meanwhile

The rain is pouring
The sky is dark
There’ll be no hills to climb today
There’ll be no seas to cross
But I’ll sip my coffee
and I will be cozy
and enjoy the cool wind
blowing by
meanwhile.
The land is plowed
The seeds are planted
Yet harvest time has not arrived
But I’ll watch the sunset
and my fields of gold
and I’ll take
a sweet little nap
meanwhile.
Yea for those who wait
for their tomorrows
let none then waste
of their todays
For all is well
and all is fine
for those who pray
and smile
meanwhile.

This Is The Great Pause In Between

This is the great pause in between work and play
the great silence between a song, and another song
This is Selah, this is s p a c e
This is the point at which the earth neither slumbers nor wakes up
This is the great pause in between crying and laughing
between getting sick and getting well again
This is the time of waiting
without expecting for something soon to come
This is the space between heartbeats
between a heartbreak and a new-found love
This moment is silence
but this is not worth nothing
Everything is stored in this very moment
where everything else proceeds,
and where every great dream is born.
