Step of Faith


The darkness is secure
No light pierces this blackness
Hands grope
Nothing
Careful
Balance
One foot reaches forward into the unseen
Nothing
The time has come
Stand or step?
Stand or step?
Deep breath
Exhale fear
Step
Falling?
The ground is solid
A light glows in the distance
A glimpse of a path
Faith well rewarded

  2. I believe I wrote that around the time I was job searching last year, so that might be a correlation. It's a metaphor for trust/faith in general though. In life there are always moments when we cannot see our next step, and can devise no positive outcome, however, taking the step of faith... well, hindsight is 20-20.
