Paul was about to be brought

   into the barracks,

he said to the tribune,

"May I say something

                to you?"

             Acts 21. 37

(Every opportunity,

every divine appointment,

every sacred encounter,

is strategically designed

    to point others to God.

But do we even say anything

                    at all?

Or let the moment pass

                unheeded?

In whatever we are going through,

wherever we find ourselves,

among whomever around us,

there is a God-designed

         spiritual dimension

         and eternal purpose.

Do we seek those moments?

Are we even aware of them?)

O LORD,

You have seamlessly woven

Your purposes into this day.

May we be sensitive

       to Your leading

and bold in speaking of You.

Your Spirit infiltrates and invades

     and infects

    even the most ordinary moments,

to point others to You

and bring You glory.

How do we see this situation

                        differently

because we know

        You are in it?
