hand-wringing

because we put down our nets
and catch only a few minnows;
because we look up 
and see the cracks in the ceiling
and not you high and lifted up;
because you have not made 
an in-person appearance to us,
we wring our hands, thinking
we have not done much
when it comes to faith,
never noticing that all you ask
is for us to trust . . .
you
