Photos of the shore in Truro, MA, taken by my favorite caricaturist, inspired today's Pause for Prayer.
Lord,
in but a few hours' time,
on the same shoreline canvas,
you paint your glory in nature's hues,
in subtle, changing shades and shadows...
New masterpieces every day -
and who knows how many times each day?
Photo by Mark Penta |
You paint with clouds, water, wind, grass and sand -
and so, I wonder, Lord,
how, with glory and beauty,
how are you painting every day
on the canvas of my soul -
and in what hues and tints
are you coloring and shading my being
with artistry divine?
Photo by Mark Penta |
Make me your canvas, Lord,
and let me take the time to find and trace
your brushstrokes on my life
lest I miss the beauty of your work
painting me as your creation, day by day:
in your image and your likeness made
and signed by the Artist's hand...
Amen.
