I sat down every morning this week to write and all I could come up with was a blank page and silence as my mind wandered from fighting to floods, from blockades to bombs, from hope to hurricanes and round and round and round she went.
This morning, I woke up with the words from an old song swimming between sleep and waking, “She’s got the whole world in her hands, she’s got the whole wide world, in her hands…she’s got you and me brother… she’s got everybody, she’s got the whole wide world in her hands.”
I pictured a statue Margaret Hudson made for me many years ago of a woman clutching the world to her heart and as I got ready to write, the song just kept rolling around in my own heart and mind.
Today perhaps, instead of or along with this bit of food for thought, I will just take a moment…. a pause, a timeout… in silence and lift the world in my prayers and hold her for just a moment, in my hands, close to my heart, and… be still.
I offer you that opportunity as well. Let’s all take a moment, a pause, in silence…
May you be safe in your world, giving prayers and what ever resources you can to those close to you and across the globe. May you find peace in the silence and hope in the knowing that (as the song actually goes) – He’s got the whole world in his hands.”
In loving silence and gratitude.
