The Word of God

A seed planted in the silence, a quiet truth that sprouts.
It needs no altar, no grand cathedral arch,
only the open soil of a listening heart.
A whispered promise carried on the dawn’s first light,
a constant hum beneath the world’s loud noise.
It feels like rain after a long, dry season,
quenching the parched spirit, filling the empty spaces.
A steady flame in the deep winter dark,
offering warmth without demanding belief.
It is the anchor when the storm winds blow,
a gentle, unwavering presence, guiding us home.
A simple rhythm, the heartbeat of the universe.
