When I woke up this morning, Lord,
you were waiting for me,
just at the foot of my bed,
you were waiting for me…
You were waiting for me
to get out of bed and follow you
wherever you might lead me…
You were waiting for me
to call on you
and ask your blessing on my day…
You were waiting for me
to turn my thoughts in your direction,
to tip my heart towards you in gratitude,
to open my soul’s windows
to welcome in your Holy Spirit’s wisdom…
And all day long, Lord,
you’ll wait for me with help for all my problems…
you’ll wait for me with mercy for my failings…
you’ll wait for me with healing for my bruises…
you’ll wait for me with peace to ease my worries…
you’ll wait for me with light to fill my darkness…
you’ll wait for me with comfort in my grief…
you’ll wait for me when I run off to foolishness…
you’ll wait for me to make some time
and find a place
where I might rest and, yes, Lord
– wait for you…
You’re waiting for me, Lord,
all day long and through the night,
so help me wait for you
and find you everywhere I turn…
Amen.
