Prevenient Grace

Divine living grace
swirling around us, watching us
as a father with a child
playing in the field
Waiting, watching, hoping
that the child would run back to him
would fall safely in his loving arms
Would turn from the world,
back to relationship with him
A loving God, desiring our faith
our wanting to be close to him
Longing for our turning
away from our earthly wills
to His grace, love for us
proven, made possible
by the sorry on Calvary
the joy of Easter morning
and the birthing on Pentecost
