Stepping into faith

Books and Poetry
Since 2010 I have assisted in facilitating men’s contemplative retreat groups and retreats. Every year around October, I co-facilitate a retreat called ‘Sole2soul.’ It allows men to unplug from the demands of life, and re-connect with God in community and silence, all the while in nature.
Here I am,
doing the best I can,
with what resources I have,
collected over this lifetime.
Here I carry,
In one hand, a small simple toolbox,
with helpful things to attend to mystery,
while in the other hand, heavy baggage,
I carry these, with imbalance, so slowly,
oft’ shifting from hand to hand,
redistributing the burden, closely.
Here I go,
doing the best I can,
with what resources I have,
collected over this lifetime.
