Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet

 

And David said,

"The LORD

who delivered me

from the paw of the lion

and from the paw of the bear

will deliver me from 

the hand of this Philistine."

              1 Samuel 17. 37

(This was not David's

         first rodeo.

God did not just bring him

   through the impossible,

but strengthened him

      through the experience.

It was not that David

    was stronger than he thought,

but realized God is mightier 

than he could ever imagine.

The lion and bear were

   only training exercises

in learning to rely on God.

He ain't seen nothin' yet.

      Nor have we.)

O LORD,

May we not just remember,

but engrave on our hearts,

  thoughts and attitudes,

what You have already

   brought us through.

You are still with us.

We are mindful

         of Your strength

   and Presence

in our struggles

    and our joys.

You give us yet a new story

  of Your faithfulness.

No matter what unfolds,

may You above all

   be glorified in it.
