Come to The Meadows:
The Meadows is not an address
The Meadows is not a concrete place
The Meadows does not have a mail box
nor a laneway or location.
The Meadows is only a place in your memory or in your dreams.
Come and rest a while
and then think of other times
When you sat by water
or strolled in the midst of cedars oron trails
Where you found some quiet place to read
Or watched the fish in a spring-fed creek
Perhaps you sat by a rail fence or
in the shade of a huge elm tree
Maybe you watched birds
chatter in conversation with each other
Did you listen to frogs in ponds
or perhaps meet God
as you walked through a Labyrinth
Did you sit in a gardens or
learn in a special space
Did you rest in the stillness that only God provided
To The Meadows - A place of Manna
