For He shatters

the doors of bronze

and cuts in two

the bars of iron.

        Psalm 107. 16

(In the most impossible

          situations,

God does not just

provide a way through,

He provides His way

         into it.

God delivers

          not just out of,

but into for His glory.

There is always

   a lot more to this,

and that would be

  trusting Him in it.

We see bolted doors

         and dead ends.

God sees victory

in knowing

and trusting Him more.

God provides.

God protects.

God redeems.

God infiltrates

   His strength in this

   impossible situation.)

O LORD,

What seems a road block,

an impossible task,

a closing of opportunity

are Your ways

    of pointing us to You.

You may blast open

        that door of bronze,

You may lead us

               right through it,

but all along

that we would realize

  not our own strength

  and cleverness,

not even Your mighty hand,

        but Who You are,

   the Almighty God.

Help us to know You more

in whatever we face today.
