Rise

Through tired eyes

Remains a flicker of life’s sparkle

Dimmed, but never to go out

A new perspective

Emboldened truths

A changed vision

A front row seat to the coexistence of

Grace and tragedy intertwined

Sitting with the complexity of emotions

Moving through them

Wisdom to be gained

Looking head on

Even when thrown on your back

Gaze fixed looking up

Love for the broken world

Abundant blessings remain

A humble testimony

Telling the story

Down on your knees

Get up and rise
