God who meets us where we are,
God who is never distant or far,
Surrounding, sustaining, shimmering like a star,
Meeting us, even in our scars.
There is a story that guides our life;
Sometimes our narrative is full of strife;
Moments where we strive with all our might;
Always prayerfully moving toward Your light.
Help reframe, revise, rework, renew, rewrite;
Reassure us Your editing is never done with might,
You refashion, reform with love shining bright,
Causing us to move toward the grace of right.
This verse may never be sung by choirs
Quoted in Tweets or yelled from spires.
But the point is not only to inspire,
My prayer is to help others find their soul fire.
So let these words of this silly rhyme
Ring out like a church bell or chime,
Finding, feeding, helping all Your children climb,
Trusting in the One whose love is always on time.
Offered with
gratitude to God who makes all our verses rhyme. Amen.
