It Doesn’t Surprise Me, Lord
It doesn’t surprise me, Lord,
that You are always there
amid each moment of my life.
For You have promised:
I am with you always.
I thank You, Lord,
for being there
even in the moments
when I stand unaware
of Your Presence.
Fill my soul, Lord.
Pour Your Spirit into me
that I may be
continually awake
to Your Presence
in my life.
Dwell within the depths of me.
Live and Move
and have Your Being
in every moment of my life
that I may be receptive
to all that Your Presence
can mean
in my life
and in the lives
of those who pass by me.
It doesn’t surprise me, Lord,
that You are always there
amid each moment of my life.
For Your Presence changes me –
I see with different eyes.
I hear with ears
that are not my own.
I can love where there is hate.
I can give a gentle touch.
I can lift the broken spirit.
I can care,
when no one else will care.
Yet, it is not me, Lord.
It is You in me.
Use Your Presence in me, Lord,
to make Your “Always Presence”
known in other lives.
