Thought
If we persist in asking “Why?”
We must, recall the scenes gone by.
Much more from past the mind will dwell.
Fresh causes seek - deep histories tell!
Instead, we gain from moment phase,
For greatest good to now rephrase
“Why not?”, “What next?”, and use our skill,
In contexts where, most we need to fill.
When, at last, true vision we align,
When Lord seen as moments of time
And we remain attuned to Grace.
Not just in time but every space
When this is so, our thanks would be,
For previously suffered agony
As pains That made us to Him turn
Were means for us to live and learn.
Prayer
O Lord of Time, I place myself far from Thee when I dwell on the past; in these moments I fail to see You here and now. Thank you for all the painful moments; grant me more compassion and the grace to see the milestones as evidence of Your Divine hand.
