Running Toward Water is a collection of poems centered around the mystery of prayer as an experience of transformation in Divine Love. This experience unfolds over three cyclical stages: letting belief come undone, opening to the depth of what is still true, and allowing that truth to permeate and flow from the heart. Individual poems explore themes of climate grief, mortality, loneliness, chronic pain, surrender, and belonging, always through the lens of the natural world. As the speaker falls into deeper layers of seeing, she finds hope in acts of love offered and received, more than outcomes, and warmth in the sacred Oneness of all being.
