Blessing for the Anxious

This is a blessing for the anxious and fearful,
for those who aren’t convinced that God indeed loves them.
This is a blessing for me.

This is a hug from an old friend,
a tambourine calling in the distance,
a fresh raspberry off a bush.

This is the pure laughter of sprinting,
tumbling, 
barreling down a mountainside.

This is a blessing 
for the realization
that the grass is growing.

Indeed, the grass has already grown.

This is Christ.
