Today’s Reflection:  Your Ways 

I’m in awe of your ways, oh Lord
In me, You love and value what I don’t.
You gladly use what I want to discard.
If I see a dead end, You show me a path out.

If I’m blind, You make me listen.
If I’m deaf, You show me the truth.
When I rest, You visit my thoughts.

You lift me up when I’m humble and
tame me when I’m proud.
You frustrate my plans,
when I’m controlling
and help me advance
when I give You my trust.

You show me that love is the way
Because I was wounded,
I could help others heal
Because I was broken,
I could help others to mend.

Every time I feared to trust You
I was faced with your unrelenting love
You left me without arguments and excuses
and what was left was nothing more
but awe of your ways, oh Lord. Amen — Sindy Collazo
