~ Grace ~ the sunrise over the hill

Grace is a place I go
Where I feel I don’t need to know
It’s not exactly a place you see 
But when you touch its hand it lets everything be..
The hand you hold is not felt with a touch
And it is not seen with the eyes, 
It’s far too much 
It may be as simple as a moment of treating something with care
Or the taste of a scrumptious meal that you, your family or loved ones have prepared,
 A moment where you feel your feet really sink into the ground,
Or you choose to look up when it’s so much easier to look down 
Grace & love are so easily confused 
Whereas Grace is a space
And love makes this a place 
So the two can come together, 
~ to be embraced. 

So learn to fill your love with Grace, 
So you open more to trust 
Because you hold it lightly 
Knowing that all things can bust 
Even love can bust if it’s pulled enough by your fears,
But Grace lets love change gears 

We may fear to feel the other side of love 
Where the sunshine hides
With the clouds storming up above 
To let it get messy & out of our control, out of what we see
But to love with Grace let’s it all be
Be all of the sharp edges, the wounds, the prickles & the stormy skys
Because it tells us we will definitely get by 
We definitely see the sun rise over the hill 
Because Grace allows the heart to refill.. 
Even when we are still.
