The hidden face
11.19.05 (8:49 am) [edit]I pray Lord
as I sit here before your gaze,
help me to understand others,
their ways,
and the why"s,
that can drive me crazy,
if I don't come and sit
finding peace in your simple
profound presence.
If I can't understand
then help me to simply accept
the mystery,
the uniqueness,
the beauty,
of each of your children
that you have thought into existence
out of love,
to one day be united with you.
It is in the least;
those I consider outside,
the ones that I struggle with
sometimes perhaps hate,
it is then,
in those moments,
that you show me your face
perhaps hidden,
but nonetheless there

Well said. Indeed, God seems to speak to me most through those I struggle with.

True, but a lesson I have to learn over again from time to time.
Peace
