Oh how I need you this day, my Lord.
I need you in ways I cannot even imagine.
Things will come my way that I did not anticipate,
and without you by my side,
directing me,
protecting me,
I would not know what to do.
Lord, your Word sustains me,
And Your Spirit lifts me up, comforting and teaching me.
When I am perplexed, I find the answer in you.
You have promised to strengthen me when I am weary
And uphold me with Your righteous right hand.
Lord , I take You at your word.
Forgive the times I have run ahead of you, not waiting for your voice.
And the times I have disregarded your wisdom.
Thank you for your everlasting love,
Your endless forgiveness
And abundant joy.
I bow before you, oh my King.
(reflections on Isaiah 41:10)
