Selah

 

The message came.

Come away to a desert place and rest awhile.

The way opened.

I left my work in the valley to tread the sandy soil

amid the junipers, 

To listen to the whispers in the sage.

Stop. Be still.

Know that I am God.

Pause. Ponder. Praise.

Dream My dreams.

And I will do a new thing.

As streams flow from a mighty Rock,

You shall be refreshed and pour out rivers of living water

in the land of the crystal peaks where the

gray goose grows.

Selah
