Waves

Here it is, the silence of still waters
Occasional waves, lapping over each other

Oh, what a joyous puppy, coming up to me, as it's owner has her on a leash, but watches afar
Allowing the time between us, to be filled with giggles and cuddles.

One month
How do I prepare my heart for You?
such that it may be pure, warm, softened - for Your love to be expressed.

Two months
Father, use me.
Use these hands and feet to love, as well as a gentle heart.

Three months
Guide me as I go back, to where You've placed me, to where struggles arose, yet to where I must grow.
Father, teach me to love, and let go.
