a glimmer of hope


a glimmer of hope
arises
a heartbeat is heard
an opportunity for God’s Love
to thrive
and bring joy in the midst
of a cruel world.

a glimmer of hope
arises
and then dashed
by medical doctors
whose level of compassion
lay dormant
beneath “their” wants
“their” desires
“their” beliefs

a glimpse of hope
arises
a baby grows within the womb
Abort! Abort! is heard
but no! it will not be
That is not my desire
Not mine, not ours
and certainly not God’s.

God’s will will rule.

a glimmer of hope
arises
God brings life
into the world
His will is not to destroy
that which He has created.
He desires to bring life --
abundant life.

May the glimmer of hope
be ever brighter and bolder
and come to fruition.
