Glisten
(Found here ) St. Francis said that every tree in the forest should be decorated with lights, since that is a tree’s true nature. Sometimes, after a cold rain has almost drowned the leaves, this bright miracle happens a baptism. They glisten in the deep forest, whether we see them, or not. Like the trees I long, hope, trust, to shine with a light beyond my own. To join the incandescence of the whole universe, giving glory back to the God who is its Light. ~Luci Shaw
