As I look out my window,
I see lifelessness.
I see naked trees
with fallen leaves;
that which had color now possesses
none.
As I look out my window,
I see lifelessness.
I see empty roads;
quiet streets.
Activity that once was bustling
has gone silent.
As I look out my window,
I see lifelessness
but
I am reminded of the beginning;
a beginning that was chaos and nothing;
nothing but Your Spirit, oh God,
hovering over the waters of the deep.
And so the lifelessness I see is really not lifeless.
You are hovering.
So as I look out my window,
I see Life.
I see beauty,
created by You.
That which I saw as lifeless
really is not.
As I look out my window…
