Leap of Faith
Where do your thoughts fly
when you think about the future ?
Where are you in your dreams ?
Sometimes I think you dream alone,
but then, Im only guessing.
The fearsome possibility of aloneness
haunts my uncharted depths,
and lurks beneath my cool facade,
taunting me to let it out,
and voice the painful truth.
For what does my beloved wait ?
A sign from heaven or planets aligned ?
Every second there are signs from heaven !
And the planets may align for a moment,
but then they move on.
Its the step toward the *Shechinah,
Into the light of *HaShem.
Yes, our inadequacies will be revealed.
But fear not, the One is there to cover us,
with the embrace for the prodigal son.
There comes a moment,
when the leap must be taken.
When the waters must flow over your head.
It is the diseased that step into the *mayim
and the healed who emerge.
Our first steps are always from a place of imperfection
We form the sign from heaven with our tears.
We align the planets in our uncertainty.
Every moment can be the moment of redemption,
and every place the place of salvation !
*Shechinah- Presence of God
*HaShem - The Name
*Mayim - water
