THE STAYING HAND
A puff of breeze,
A gentle nudging
And the Holy Spirit has
Impressed the day upon me.
How I should think, feel
And behave in honor of Thee.
Or an answer to a question,
Or a new direction
Is what the gentle push gives,
A holy correction.
Like a staying hand upon my arm
And a sweet, soft voice saying, "Wait",
The Holy Spirit speaks to me.
Like a gentle nudging.
Like a puff of breeze.
