Prayer


Dear Lord,
You are life and the foundation of life
            Now we test your design; to draw upon your strength.
You are Jesus, bridging and crossing the bridge to us.
            Now we set our feet upon your bridge.
You accompany us and keep us company.
            Now we lean on you.
This is all your creation,
            yet we call upon you to create again and again.
You said  you would be with us to the end,
            yet we search for you in every face we see.
Your whirlwind and your silence speak out
            yet we wish you would interrupt us, shake us awake, and be plain.
(Take a deep breath.  Take three.)
Thy will be done.
Your will be done.
Not mine but thy will be done.
