The past month has been unbe-logable. Life keeps getting lifelike all around me, all I can do is try to hold everyone I love up to God in hopes that he will nourish us all. Its hard to hold everyone up like this for a sustained period, but I know he will take over soon. The following is a memory of an actual event, unrelated to what has been going on, that came to me in the midst of everything else and somehow puts things into perspective for me.
When this event took place my daughters compassionate nature was yet to be formed. Maybe that is why this memory puts things into perspective for me. Time and the Lord will sort all things out. "These things too shall pass."
Yeah, that faith thing again.... belief in, devotion to, or trust in somebody or something, especially without logical proof...
"Their faith was unwavering."
Keep the faith!

Baby girl, you were too young
to remember the water gathered
and trickled about your eye
where your tearduct would be
that made you fuss in the sink
the night I baptized you
hours after they argued
whether you should be
presumptive though it was
me not being a priest
they worried about
who the God-parents would be
in the kitchen that timorous dark night
your Da was frightened for your soul.

My "Baby girl" is almost 21 now. She has a well of compassion the likes of which even she dose not know the true depth of. She may not show it to everyone, but the Lord and I know it's there.
My faith is unwavering.
