Faith Is Not Always Easy

The Trapeze

I leave the platform
Legs hooked over the bar
Back arched
Arms spread wide
I fly
The safety net far below me
It is exhilarating
I look ahead
Another trapeze coming towards me
It is God
Arms spread wide
He is reaching
I am reaching
We long to be one
The moment is approaching
Can I let go and grab on to Him
In a split second I look down
It is a long way
I look again at God
The moment is now
No I cannot do it
I swing back to my platform
God back to His
Maybe next time.
