O LORD,
   You are my God;
I will exalt You,
I will praise Your name,
for You have done
       wonderful things,
plans formed of old,
   faithful and sure.

           Isaiah 25. 1

(God continues to do so
    on a daily basis.
We live in a chronicle
     of His faithfulness,
most of which
   we are totally unaware.
He has done
          wonderful things,
     past tense.
He is doing
          wonderful things,
     present tense.
Even now,
  God is bringing forth
            abundant fruit
  I cannot yet see,
even that which will
         outlive me.)

O LORD,
There are so many things
     we cannot understand,
nor are we meant to,
but we can exalt You
          by our lives,
we can praise You
    with our words,
we can pray
         all we want.
You send down roots,
put forth shoots,
and fill this world
  with unexpected fruit
  in unlikely places,
even in our lives,
even through our lives.
Your plans are not just
       faithful and sure.
But You are.
