- Inspired by Luke 14:25-32
‘Tis a brave act, indeed
To step out of familiar boxes marked
Family
Roles
Strivings
“Honor your Father and Mother”
Idolize them above all other
The gentle Shepherd approaches with his arms
outstretched
Come, dear one
Come and follow
Walk with, listen and know my ways
The cost may mean
you choose to leave behind
the boxes you’ve outgrown
But the gain, He leans close,
is my Peace.
