New Beginings

Elijah stood atop castle apartments, the breeze pushing him towards the ground that lay far below.  He swiped the hair covering his eyes and gazed into the distance.  Today Elijah had visited the church, despite his Islamic heritage.  He listened to the pastor convene his message to his flock, describing the importance of being a rock.  Elijah knew that from now on in his life he would be the rock for others that he never had.   He visualized the passage in his head Psalm 17 The Lord is My Rock.  The words spoke to him in way he had never felt before.  They seemed to be calling him to some higher purpose unknown to him.  He repeated the passage, and promised himself that he would do whatever is necessary to fulfill the destiny his heart ached for.
