The Art of Not Missing Out

 

Then Joshua said

            to the people,

"Consecrate yourselves,

for tomorrow the LORD

   will do wonders among you."

               Joshua 3. 5

(There are no ordinary days

without God's wonders

   seamlessly woven into it.

But where is my heart?

Joshua warns the people

   to get ready, be on the alert,

equipped, out of their ruts,

and devoted to the LORD,

   lest they miss out.

May we be aware of

     His Presence.

God is doing a work

   in our lives

   and in our midst

that we wouldn't believe

      if told.

           Habakkuk 1. 5

And He has strategically

  positioned us

  for His glory in this.

Is my heart in the right place

                to see?)

O LORD,

Realign our hearts,

reorder our loves,

sharpen our vision, 

help us get ready

      and be aware

of all You are doing

    around us

    and in us.

May we not miss Your wonders

     even in this day.
