And the people said to me,
“Will you not tell us
what these things
         mean for us,
that you are acting thus?”

             Ezekiel 24. 19

(Always be prepared 
to answer those who ask
about the hope 
       that is in you,
the grace that shows,
the faithfulness to God
that cannot be explained away.
People are always watching,
not to see if your life is perfect,
but how you respond 
               when it is not,
to see if God is real.)

O LORD,
Be manifest in us,
in word and deed
       and attitude,
distinguish us
   by Your Spirit
   coursing strongly in us,
through thick and thin.
Please help us
to navigate life differently 
  because we love You,
and live in such a way
   that You are seen.
