this rock
shapes me
and holds me,
this rock is my
grounding,
my foundation,
my true security
from time before time,
eternal,
true….
and when I am overwhelmed,
and when I am overspent,
and when I overwhelm
and overspend myself
I return to the rock,
to find myself
held,
to find myself
whole,
to find myself
safe,
loved completely, for
even when life pours
over me, as a deluge,
fierce, forceful,
unstoppable,
I am held,
I am whole,
I am home…
I am rock…
of this rock…
this Christ
