Peace returns


A room full of people. A blanket of sound, occasionally lifted by a tinkling of laughter or the joy in a raised voice. Indistinct faces but the pressure of a crowd, weighing in. A lack of focus; a dimness of light; the sense of needing to keep doing. Through the din I sense a knocking at the door and I open it. Light floods in with the one who was knocking. Focus is restored. Peace returns. Joy begins to bubble once more.

Come, Lord Jesus.
