Another Day At Hand

My kids said I should post some things I have written before I ever thought of a blog…
Another Day At Hand


Pulling back the curtain on another day at hand
Thinking of my lists, but, then, not knowing what You’ve planned
At peace since I’ve been saved by grace, but hoping you’ll be pleased
With words I speak and things I do and attitude beneath
For though I see the beauty and the wonder of this world
I also see the twisted, painful struggle sin has birthed
Yet amazed at every turn by complexities galore
All mysteries to guide us to our Source, our Great Reward
So help me hear Your rhythm, all the patterns of Your Way
All other life is dissonance, disorder, and decay
Shower me with blessings or lead me through the fire
All that counts at each day’s end is:  “What did You desire?”
