...but the people of Israel

walked on dry ground

in the midst of the sea.

            Exodus 15. 19

(Walk differently.

Approach the difficult

and defiant

and the impossible

    with a different heart.

When we walk with Him

       in the daily stuff,

we know how to walk

       in the scary stuff,

the rocky parts,

the cliffs,

the miry bog,

    and the midst of the sea.

Not just His hand over mine,

           but His heart.

Circumstances do not prevail

     over His grace.)

O LORD,

May we not just be

           aware of You,

but recognize

        Your Presence

and see in the dark.

Guide us on our paths

that we may

    walk differently before You

and respond differently

                 with Your grace,

     no matter the situation.

Bring Your glory

   to what only appears

   as an impossible Red Sea.

Help us to walk on dry ground

and help others along the way

            to see You.
