The LORD bless you and keep you:
The LORD make His face
             to shine upon you:
The LORD lift up 
        His countenance upon you,
and give you peace.

                         Numbers 6. 24-26

(Even in this unlikely situation,
     even in this impossible place,
the reality of God's presence.
I love how these three distinct phrases
are not separated by semi-colons
               but connected by colons,
not attached truth,
      but blessing layered upon layer.
His blessing is always deeper
              than we can comprehend,
but sometimes appears
             as hope in tangible pieces.)
