NPM: #4

Throughout the month of April, I will attempt to write a poem a day for National Poetry Month.

Jesus Girls

Two hours.
Eight ladies
One Bible Study.

Adds up to...

Stories shared.
Tears tapped.
Prayers prayed.
Hearts healed.

Just in one gathering,
Where nerves came clamoring.
Where stories told secure within those walls,
Where time to talk, to seek tidbits of wisdom,
Where two listen, four formulate responses, two cry,
Or did all eight?
Where heads bow, in the now quiet, hushed peace,
For more than two or three gathered,
For He was there.

For me, a prayer answered.
Prayed two years ago
For girls that are friends.
For friends that are girls.

He answers in His Timing.
He answers in His Way.
He always answers.
Always.

Always, He answers.
