Have you ever read a poem and been moved in some way?
Those of us with a bent toward the creative will answer yes. If that’s not you, I’m willing to bet you can at least appreciate poetry from an intellectual standpoint as something beautiful that illuminates something else.
Poetry can take something really basic and leave you breathless. It can give meaning when the words of narrative seem a bit lacking. Take this stunning poem I found earlier in the week by Rachel Joy Welcher — if you’re a mom, you’ll find it impossible to read without stirring you up in a lovely way.
Today’s episode is a continuation in our conversation on storytelling. We’re diving in old-school to what Psalm 107 says, why it mattered, and why it still matters. I believe it’s a poem about telling our stories and I wonder if you might ponder it along with me.
It’s a short one for those of you who like to listen while you drive between here and there or do the dishes. Share your thoughts with me in the comments & enjoy!
