I Pray To See

Once,
I asked a wise friend:
How will I know 
I am following God’s will for
my life?

She smiled gently as she asked:
Is your mind calm 
and deep,
like a lake at the dawn of summer?
Is your heart full 
and warm,
as your skin feels when caressed by the sun?

In those moments – 
when your answer is 
YES,
you will see -
that the life you cling to
is not your own
and
that freedom 
will quiet 
the need to know. 

One response to “I Pray To See”

  1. And even when we don’t have those calm assurances, God is working God’s will, whether we like it or not.
