Pause for Prayer: SUNDAY 10/5

Photo by Mark Penta

A friend with an artist's eye photographed a river with leaves afloat, reflecting the sky - and then turned the photo sideways...

Lord,
you see me
as you see the world:
    from top to bottom,
    left and right,
    front and back, 
    upside down,
    inside out and 
    sideways...

You see the good in me
    that I so often miss...

You see the gifts in me

    that I have yet to find...

 

You see the worth in me

    that I so undervalue...  

You plumb the depths of me
    and love me, heart and soul...

You see the whole of me,

    yet cherish who I am...

 

Help me see as you do, Lord,
    before I say I've seen it all,
    before I claim I know it all,
    before I think I've nothing left to learn..

Help me see me as you see me, Lord:
    from top to bottom,
    left and right,
    front and back, 
    upside down,
    inside out and
    sideways... 

 

Help me see as you do, Lord,

    help me see what you see;

help me see what I have missed

    and treasure all I find...      

Amen.
