Enough: Lent DevotionalsSample

ENOUGH: STOP

It’s amazing what can happen

when you stop

and pay attention.

Spend an hour outdoors

staring 

at spring’s gifts

and you might see 

eternity encapsulated,

heaven collapsing

into the folding

of a butterfly’s wings,

or you may feel

a world of contentment

in the way

a blackbird sings,

but only if you

stop

and pay attention.
