Figures In Flames

For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer. Then I acknowledged my sin to you, my guilt I covered not. I said, “I confess my faults to the Lord”, and you took away the guilt of my sin.(Ps.32:3-5) 

Reflections: 

On the exposed shore

Withering heat rises.

Water my thirst with forgiveness. 

Ocean wave of compassion crash,

Foam hisses

As it rolls onto the scorched sand.

You are crying. 

Step out of the fire,

Come into the light.
