But, as it is written,
"What no eye has seen,
nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared
     for those who love Him."

             1 Corinthians 2. 9

(We have no clue
       the wonders of His hand.
Not just what God has
             prepared for us,
   but what He has
             prepared us for.
This passage repeats the promise
   made 800 years prior
   by the prophet Isaiah:
"From of old no one has heard
or perceived by ear,
no eye has seen a God besides You,
who acts for those who wait for Him."
                      Isaiah 64. 4)

O LORD,
You are great and mighty
and work far beyond our understanding.
Guide us in Your ways
      and align our hearts with Yours.
Equip us as a witness to others
                  for Your glory.
Because we love You,
 we hear, see, perceive
   and respond differently
in unlikely places
          and in unexpected ways.
