When I run ahead without patience to wait,
Thinking I’m in control and in charge of my fate,
I’m not fooling anyone, even myself.
Lord give me the patience to wait on the shelf.
Help me learn satisfaction with what life may bring,
See beauty in simple to help my heart sing,
Find joy in the tiny no matter how small,
Find joy in the daily response to Your call.
Content penning words that with rhythm align,
That point out a truth like a painting or sign,
Sharing God’s love a few lines at a time,
I love to write verses that end with a rhyme.
Words float on the web; some appear in a book.
I pray they’re a blessing should anyone look.
