Harvest of Hope

When the torrent of trials

Leads to the shores of unrelenting and unwavering compassion

That’s severe yet sustaining mercy.

When agonies both bygone and imminent

Bloom a garden of tenacious tenderness

That’s the gentle gift of grace.

When the crush of chaos

Begets a covering of calm and quietude

That’s the perfect provision of peace.

When driving gales of discouragement

Yield to currents of courageous confidence

That’s a hearty harvest of hope.
