I have led you

    forty years in the wilderness.

Your clothes have not

          worn out on you,

and your sandals have not

   worn off your feet.

                Deuteronomy 29. 5

(Where God guides, He provides.

He has given each one of us

  a chronicle of His faithfulness.

It is not that the way is easy,

He may lead us in strange places,

        but He is with us

                    all the way.

We come out on the other side

                of the wilderness

     closer to Him and equipped,

that we would not just believe,

           but know

     that He is the LORD our God.)

O LORD,

You care for us

even more than we can know.

Help us to trust You

             even in this,

that we will know how

   to trust You more

   in the next adventure.

You specialize in the unexpected,

open up Your wonders

              in the wilderness,

and reveal Your way

       through the impossible.

May we acknowledge

            Your Presence with us

    today in all we do and say

that we would know You more

      and make You known.
