Direct it to Me

 

Seek the LORD

    and His strength.

Seek His Presence

    continually!

    1 Chronicles 16. 11

(Because when we seek God,

   we see Him

           in all things.

God is not just

   in the grand narrative

but in every detail of our lives.

When we pray and seek Him,

   not just an answer,

God enlarges our vision.

We see circumstances

    with fresh eyes and heart

and our situation

    with a new strength

    that He provides.

What can I do?

God says,

   "Direct it to Me."

Seeking Him is our first response

as we go into our days,

not just in times of trouble

  or despair or mystery,

but even into the joy.)

O LORD,

We seek You into this day

   You are unfolding before us.

Guide our hearts and acts

   and thoughts

   that we may grow stronger

and learn to trust You

              even more.

You are forever with us.

We need not walk alone.

   You never intended that.

Open our eyes

    to Your Presence.

Transform our hearts

   into this day.
