curiosity, adventure and the future

No hesitation
No fear
Just curiosity about what’s next,
While I am always wondering
what disaster awaits.

Help me to see You as
the One
who reveals
the future
as I need to know.

Sometimes like today,
The knowing
in my head
has a hard time
getting to my heart.

I need your help Lord.
I want to look at changed plans
with a sense
of adventure.
And a child-like curiosity
that wonders
what YOU might
do next.

Psalm 141:8 – But my eyes are fixed on you, Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge.

  4. “We cannot count on God to arrange what happens in our lives in ways that will make us feel good.We can, however, count on God to patiently remove all the obstacles to our enjoyment of Him. He is committed to our joy, and we can depend on Him to give us enough of a taste of that joy and enough hope that the best is still ahead to keep us going in spite of how much pain continues to plague our hearts.”
