Not Our Own: A Haiku

What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time?

The most important thing I must always remember to pick back up again and again and carry with me at all times is humility before God and obedience to Him.

Humans, we…loved eternally and unconditionally by God.
And, too, fallen — susceptible to being blinded by our own understandings and to being deceived by external forces.
By God’s grace, we dwell in the “safe-zone” when we commit to continually praying that only His will be done (i.e., whatever HE knows is correct). We are ALWAYS able to pray that prayer, even if we have to whisper it out through clenched teeth or tears. He is always able to honor that prayer. Psalm 72:11 reminds us that we can submit to Him through our prayers, thoughts, words, and actions — whether that be now, or eventually: “Yes, all kings shall bow down before Him….”

Lesser-rulers, all
Stand under God’s loving eye
Yea, we will bow down

A Tale of Two Days

I stare out windows a lot. I notice. I pray. I pray today that today wasn’t some mistake.
“Pray With Me: A Haiku”
Don’t reverse daybreak
The light in our eyes called Hope
Energize our prayers

Solve: A Haiku

Just before sunrise

The firmament feels nearer

‘Tis a mystery….

Question: What one or two precepts have served you well?

One hand reaching for the sky
Life requires this
