When You See Something, Say Something

 

With my mouth, I will give

    great thanks to the LORD;

I will praise Him

   in the midst of the throng.

              Psalm 109.30

(What stories has God given us,

not to be cherished alone

          or hidden in a drawer,

but to share

    for the upbuilding of others?

Not speaking in high-falutin

    theological abstract terms,

but in the concrete experience

   of our relationship with Him.

In a court of law,

   our testimony is based on

   what we see and what we know.

For His glory,

      our testimony is the same.)

O LORD,

And how will others know

    of Your steadfast love and grace

    unless we point to You

        in what we have experienced?

Help us to speak up, Almighty One,

    face to face,

     in the midst of church family,

or even among those

  who don't yet know You.

Please help us to

     recognize and 

        acknowledge Your hand

that others may know

   that You, O LORD, care about

   the very details of their lives too.
