Damp Relations

Sometimes, water is added
to existing mission relationships,
and amazing things begin to grow.

Sometimes the door
of relationship is first
opened by pure water.

And then there are the times
when water is dropped
from 30,000 feet and
a few upturned, open mouths
have their thirst miraculously quenched,
if only briefly.

May we, O Lord,
celebrate the fly-over mists,
the deepest wells, and
all of the connections and
partnerships, such as they are.

At the same time, may we
always thirst for more,
and be propelled by grace
to dig deeper together.
