Now therefore
    stand still and see
this great thing
that the LORD will do
       before your eyes.

              1 Samuel 12. 16

(Are we so distracted with busy-ness
    that we miss what God is doing?
Are we willing to trust the LORD
                   even in this?
Are we willing to let Him
       bring about His glory?
God never works
         in singular outcomes
and always beyond
         what we can see.
Are we being faithful to God
  in what is before us today?
Even in this.
God is working a great thing
  that we do not yet
                     recognize.)

Guide us, O LORD,
not just in what to do today,
but how to do them,
aligned with Your heart
       in the doing and being,
in what precise order,
wherever You place us,
among whomever
    Your divine appointments
        You have set up
    and sacred encounters
        we didn't see coming,
  for Your glory alone.
There is nothing insignificant
      in Your eyes
      and in Your purposes.
Nothing You cannot use.
