Start where you are
But there is nothing here!
The place has little prospects
A small town
Few people
What about the big world out there?
So many wonderful places
Surely God wants me there!
He wants me to be the light “there!”
Not here
This place is too small
The people… well
I was made for the big stage
The big moments… right?
To bring change in high places
Not in my town
Not in my place of work!
As I stay in wait in Your presence
I hear you whisper
“Child, you are in the right place, start where you are
I have given you all things that pertain to life and godliness. Arise and be the light, be the salt”

Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.” John 1:46
Fountains of hope poetry 
Beautiful poetic words so well composed. Too good.
