Water and the Word: Across the Mist
(a riff on 1 Corinthians 13) We are, all of us,
either walking beside
or wading in the river of life.
Now we see
across the mist, dimly;
but when grace arrives
in its fullness,
the sun of love
will cause the mist
to evaporate,
and we shall both fully know
and be fully known.
Help us, Lord,
to use our whole selves —
bodies, minds, and spirits —
and all within our reach —
time, talents, possessions —
to keep the river flowing and fresh
for all God’s children.
