Letter 4544
Upon what do I rest?
When at home, my feet trod floorboards that sometimes creak and groan.
In the field, I stand upon wide open ground.
In the stream, on shifting river stones.
In the heights, upon a mountain that itself rests on the foundations of the world.
❖
Do I, then, have just one foundation? Are not my underpinnings dependent on the day and hour?
Let me seek you, Lord, sure support underneath all.
Consider:
Can I seek a true foundation today?
