The Grand Whatevers

 

Now then,

whatever God has said to you,

               do.

            Genesis 31. 16

(That's where daily praying comes in,

laying out our cares and troubles,

complicated situations,

and even joys before God,

                  as we pray.

Give praying the margin

           to sink in.

And then listen and respond.

When we pray,

God realigns our hearts

   and sharpens our vision.

How can we handle this

     with a new spirit,

  because we prayed?

       To be a faithful witness.

What whatever has God placed

     before us today?

The menu changes daily.)

O LORD,

Please help us to

   stop just talking about it,

      but hold Your hand

       and respond to You.

Help us to not argue ,

        nor complain,

  nor insert our own ideas

                 or excuses,

but to follow You

    into Your sacred purposes.

We cannot see

       around the next bend.

But You, Almighty One,

 encompass all eternity.
