He chose David his servant
and took him from the sheepfolds,
from following the nursing ewes.
He brought him to shepherd
Jacob his people,
Israel his inheritance.
Psalm 78. 70-71
(God's training ground
in faithfulness
is not always obvious,
nor where we want to be.
But what is God
forming in us through this?
What purpose is there
in this mundane work?
Eternal ones
we cannot yet see.
God is equipping us,
beyond what we can
ever do on our own.
What is God doing with this?
Strength training.)
O LORD,
Help us to trust Your
training program,
in what You have
put on our plates,
where You have placed us,
and among the people
on this path.
Complete Your work in us
and help us to serve You
even right where we are.
Help us to grow into
faithfulness,
present and future tense.
