The Grace of Becoming

Scripture  

Mark 4:27 (NIV)  

Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up,  

the seed sprouts and grows,  

though he does not know how.

Refrain  

Grace is at work, even when I can’t see it.

Quote / Poem  

Rainer Maria Rilke, from *Letters to a Young Poet*  

“Everything is gestation and then bringing forth.  

To let each impression and each seed of a feeling  

come to completion in itself,  

in the dark,  

in the unsayable,  

the unconscious, beyond the reach of one’s own understanding—  

and with deep humility and patience  

to wait for the hour  

when a new clarity is born.”
