Amazing Grace
Grace is the offer to breathe
to stop here and rest,
to lay down the need
to do it my way,
the courage to risk.
Grace is a hand held,
an invitation to surrender,
reaching beyond reason,
a re-routing of my heart.
Grace is liberation,
an ending of not good enough,
of blame, shame and shadow;
an awakening of joy;
the emergence of hope.
Grace is the great homecoming,
the welcome of loving-kindness,
a belonging and a becoming:
unmasked and fear free.
Grace is the challenge
to choose kindness,
a call to join the resistance,
when injustice
swells triumphant
and thoughts of hatred rise;
a movement of mercy.
Grace is extravagant,
unrelenting, tenderhearted,
removes boundaries,
stretches horizons;
is a pearl of great price.
Amazing grace.
