Is It Possible?

Can it be,

that when circumstances change

so does your body?

From the synapses of thought connections

to fibrousy muscle tissue,

there’s a settling.

A re-aligning of Jenga like sections,

shifting into place.

A releasing of breath

that you didn’t know had been held,

for a decade and a half.

Can you hold your breath that long?

Was it a lack of trust that caused the binding

or did the intensity of the grip prove the trust.

Or both.

Can you look back

and realize that His promises are true

and that He’s had this all along.

Is there wonder stirring

under the weightedness

that you didn’t know bogged you down.

Was the weight that you knew was there

so connected to the deep, yearning desire for this,

yet you didn’t realize the depths of the burden you carried,

until it started to lift.
