Struggling with error, wrestling with fear,
Glimpses of Truth, Love, Life—here.
The study, the searching, the wonder profound,
The effort of gaining, holding, maintaining, my ground.
It had not occurred to me
That I could be
Waiting—for the moving of the water.
There it was, in Love's Lesson Bible Lesson in the Christian Science Quarterly
That story of waiting
(A story read numerous times before),
Of a man, a cripple, who
For thirty-eight years
Lay
Waiting
For the moving of the water.
