Faith's Breaking Point
a poem about Moses and his parents
Endure in faith until you break and hatch a plan for another to catch The little dreams you lay in baskets and sent downstream. Wait and see the discovery: Pharaoh's daughter protecting What Egypt swore to stop, and Pharaoh soon to reap what he wrought. Endure in faith until you break and perhaps kill and force your will Through pride and lust. Then, turn tail and run, you must. Your temper has lost you a chance to set them free, or so you believe. Then weep and let go and watch God grow a shepherd to feed His sheep. Endure in faith to practice the break that comes before new life– A different approach, perhaps a “let's see,” another circuitous route to be free– Until you see love producing fruit in you greater than your greatest thoughts. This resurrection life sprouts from broken dreams that God caught.
