...he related one by one

the things that

        God had done...

              Acts 21. 19

(Let God use these experiences

      to encourage others,

a chronicle of His faithfulness

  to point others to Him.

God has given each of of us

a story

        for His glory.)

O LORD,

We stand amazed

not in what happens,

   but what You are doing,

and by how You are using us

         for Your profound purposes.

Make us incredibly aware

  of Your Presence with us today,

wherever You place us,

among whomever

               You have appointed.

Help us

       to bring Your name there.

Things do not just happen,

things are not just for a reason,

   but intimately designed

that all the world would know

             that You are God.

Even in this.
