A parable — Supercooling

The water in the still glass cooled past freezing, and yet did not freeze. It waited, perfect and clear, for a single grain of dust. When the grain fell, the water turned to ice in an instant. The cold had been there all along; it had only been waiting to be touched. Ask yourself: What in you is supercooled — held still past its point, waiting for one touch? GOD — wait. What looks like nothing happening is sometimes everything held, ready. (A Narrow Highway original teaching parable — not a parable of Jesus; a made story that carries a true edge.)
