in thanksgiving

not what we trained for
nor where we thought
not what we hoped for
nor where we chose

gifts given
visions seen
hope renewed
prayer answered
often unawares

a time to abide
and to build up 
a time to yield
and then to splinter
a time of purposelessness
and of quiet preparation
a time of conviction
and a time of doing

he makes everything beautiful in its time.
