Lord, as our lives dip, turn, rise, flip, and roll
Help us to remember . . .
You have the controls of our lives.
There is no problem with Your skill as an operator.
Our response is to simply rest
in this confidence
as we move through the
days . . .
weeks . . .
months . . .
and years you have remaining for us.
There will be times it won’t turn out
“all right” . . .
all the time . . .
to our liking . . .
but as long as it’s to
Your liking . . .
Your plan . . .
and in Your time . . .
we can rest secure.
Even when we lost Gordon,
He was not lost to You.
We did not die.
We still love You.
We still say You are good.
Blessed be Your name!
