Resting in the Calm: I has a very close friend was attacked and severely beaten in her house, some years ago.  I was overwhelmed with total helplessness at the time, with no way to effectively make things better.  I sat down one evening and wrote out the words that soon became this song.   Because of my deep feelings, the words flowed purely.  It was as if I was writing as fast as I could to keep up.  I had no answers or explanations, but I knew someone who did.  I tried to imagine the heart of Jesus as one of His loved ones is hurt.  I was riveted with an illustration of a parent bird kicking a baby bird out of the nest for the first time, so it could learn to fly.  The song more than any that I have written catches a slight glimpse of the love of God.  It was only as I became a Dad, myself that I really understood.
