...even though

a door was opened for me

           in the Lord...

          2 Corinthians 2. 12

(Not always the journey,

the pathway,

the outcome we expect,

but His way

     and His purposes in it.

Even in what we do see,

God brings about

        something deeper,

comprehensive and eternal.

God redeems

        every circumstance

to draw us

      and others closer to Him.)

 

O LORD,

Help us not just to

     seek another path,

     or seek new doors,

     or even an answer,

but to seek You.

Make us aware

   not just of where

   and what and how

but sensitive to Your Presence.

You cover us

not only in Your purposes

   but by Your steadfast love.

You weave us

into the grander narrative

         for Your glory,

even that which we

    cannot see yet.
