“Environment of Faith” by Wendel Miser

Mountaintops are for blessed sermons,

And clouds are for transfigurations.

Seas are for deliverance,

And rivers are for the beginning of new life.

Valleys are for coming to terms with shadows,

And deserts are for overcoming.

Rain is for awakenings,

And bushes are for burning.

Rocks are for new waters,

And hills are for light and sacrifice.

Gardens are for joy and sorrow,

And trees are for forgiveness.

Rainbows are for promise,

And stars are for the guiding.

Grass is for earthly time,

And lilies are for grace.

Fish are for the journey to follow,

And doves are for the Spirit.

Stable animals and sheep are for lessons and story,

And birds are for faith.

Wind is for divine presence,

And vine is for the family.

Stones rolled away are for resurrections,

And Heaven is for home.

His hand is for the grasping,

And our journey is with Him on this road of life.
