Give me the strength
As I start today
To follow the signs of my heart.
Give me the love
As I push through my fears
To know I am never apart.
Give me the trust
To see all is well
And all will be well ever more.
Give me your hand
As I greet this new day
And float my small boat from the shore…

This poem arrived fully formed one day. It surprised me with its simplicity, and yet, when I read it aloud, it had the power to move me deeply.
At the time I was feeling very tired and at a very low point in my life. So when I read the first words: “Give me the strength”, I remember sighing them out with a heavy heart.
If you feel heavy and a bit lost, maybe this poem will speak to you as well…
You might like to ask yourself where do you need to journey to next in your life?
What help do you need?
What will give you the faith to push your own small boat off from the shore?
