He hideth my life in the depths of His love, and covers me there with His hand

the morning is still
but the snow is dizzying
the mist is hovering over the ground

her heart is heavy & full
as tears fall from the eyes of those around her
her heart aches

she feels her way around in what seems like utter darkness
she calls out to Him asking him WHERE ARE YOU?
and she waits in the silence

she continues on
she re-learns to function, to move, to breathe, to smile
the same eyes from where the tears fell are now looking on her and watching
saying to each other "i can not even imagine..."

the mist is lifting
the light begins to penetrate the darkness
around her she sees grace falling like snow
falling like manna in perfect proportion to her need

walking through the showers of grace
is Him
the darkness is overtaken by the Light
her eyes have been opened
she's realizing that the darkness was
not the lack of Him
but it was Him
shielding her eyes from the storm.

Emmanuel.
