And morning came too early
and my tired body protests.
the hour lost.
Still I rise
in the strength of
Your Resurrection
and coffee (Your
good gift to us).
Too much to do today
and I feel the weight of the
week ahead.
Lord give me space
and time to
sit in your presence;
help me press in
to all you are
even with a lost hour,
tired body
and too much to do.
Make me mindful of
Your road to
Jerusalem
and all that weighed on You
as you knew
what awaited you.
Show me how to give myself to you
to use for you glory
in the coming days.
