Between storms


Between storms

Sometimes I feel like there is an opening in the clouds and sunlight is shining on me. For a fraction of a moment, God's Grace reveals the true me hidden beneath the armor this society has built on me. I am pure, compassionate, caring, graceful-a true being of the universe. I am beautiful. But I take one step, one breath, and it all falls away. Then it is only a memory or a mirage of my potential. How can I find a way to live in that Grace?
