Linking up with Five Minute Friday...
The In Between
Now
and still the not yet.
Been
and not to return.
Here
in this present moment.
Gone
the memories of another day.
Today
for just these precious hours.
Yesterday
had for those 24 revolutions of clock hands.
Now
and still not what will be.
Then
and still with promise waiting.
Here
with present hands open.
Coming
a time to act and move.
Today
hanging in the balance
of yesterday's regrets
of tomorrow's dreams.
In the meantime.
A waiting.
Always a gift
to be now, here, present
in the in between.
It is going to take me some processing time to see the gift of the "now, here, present in the in between" but praying I wake up a little lighter with a new perspective. In the meantime, I am waiting. Nice job here! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo thankful you stopped by and for your encouraging words!
DeleteIt can be difficult to see the grace of this day but I pray you indeed wake up lighter in the midst of waiting!
HI Niki! I am here from FMF.
ReplyDeleteIt always seems like I look forward to something, and then I miss the here and now, the in between. Sounds like you feel the same way!
Peace in Christ,

DeleteThanks for dropping by from FMF. What a wonderful community I have found FMF to be!
Being fully present in this moment can be difficult...in fact, my word for 2013 is present.
have you ever heard an old amy grant song "the now and the not yet?" the words to that song came to mind as i read your post.
ReplyDeletelovely!
Richelle-
DeleteYes, I do know that song and it was running through my head too! :)
