Borderlands Reflection To journey is first to meet with Christ who at the strangest moment unlocks a padlocked door, one I had foreclosed to a wayless place. There He and I stand upon a threshold, I wait till He calls me to cross. As my bare foot touches unknown ground the Holy Spirit guides my step, doesn't tell me our destination. In these borderlands monsters wait to wound my heart, I wrestle against wayward tensions mind against soul, my mouth utters distress. Yet Christ removes all fear, unites heart, mind, and soul. I saved from affliction, brought into Christ’s light, breathe the Paraclete’s air, pass over another threshold journey on from there. © Craig A Roberts, 2023 From Waymarks: Pilgrim Journeys.
