A Breathless Moment
It is a breathless moment when, coming to the edge Of what confounds me, I pause and ask myself if I have courage To trust completely and risk failure, Sometimes I have faltered, Turned back into the Wilderness of self-contained existence and stumbled, But when I listen to the beating of my heart I hear the voice of My Creator calling me to step outside myself, And I am always held safe and secure. by C.C.
