Seeing From A Distance

Catherine Anthony's poems are part of her life,
loving and teaching poetry, but more importantly,
living and growing her faith. Something learned
from each difficulty, from each joy, grew into
poems and the understanding that the flesh and
blood personalities who people God's Word
were lively, spiritual beings. Their lives and ours
are vivid examples of God's grace and love and
redemption.
"But grace, most sure,
determined and secure,
can clothe my naked beating breast
and dress my spirit, cheek and arm
in light that pierces dark,
can wrap the beauty of the Christ
about my waiting, grieving heart
and fill my empty ark."
