like Peter able
willing to trust
in a leap of faith
to cast aside the weight of facts
to stand on living water
To leave my life
all that I have known
to do what it takes
to truly serve the Lord

inspired by the 7th stanza of the poem, “The Ponds”,
by Mary Oliver (the one I read, the one chosen for me by God)
