  • Overview

    “Luci Shaw is a legend” —Christianity Today

    This captivating collection of poems by beloved author Luci Shaw, reflects on daily ideas and activities as they arrive, bit by bit, to illuminate us with their wisdom and enlarge on the meanings of human experience. Like small messages from beyond, these incidents call us to pay attention.

    In An Incremental Life, Shaw breathes life into the simpleness of the every-day and finds God in the memory of the mundane. Through her verses, she explores the intricate tapestry of existence, from the tender memories of childhood to the profound questions of mortality. Her poems are like windows opening to the soul, inviting readers to pause, reflect, and savor the beauty of the world around them.


    INCREMENTS
    I live by increments, single
    breaths of an ambient air,
    marking off hours, days.
     
    Apprenticed to grace, I tread statio
    in sequentiae, edging every step
    forward before venturing the next.
     
    Staggering up towards the stony
    crests of the foothills, dusty, I am
    almost undone with weariness, only half
    believing that the view will widen.
     
    In my falling upward into your home,
    O Faithful One, stay with me,
    your wind music playing the ear of
    my mind like an instrument.
     
    “This is how life happens, one day at a time, in increments! And God is in each of them for us,” Luci Shaw
