Gracious and Glorious Father

by Esther Griggs

Reflecting on Isaiah 55:12

Dear God,

How magnificent You are!

Your knowledge of my finite days

Overwhelms me!

You see it all, before I wake

And call me forth

With Joy!

You lead me then

                                                                 Not with fear, nor with a prod

                                                                               But with peace!

All that is before me,

The things I can’t seem to get around,

Those unchangeable obstacles in my way

Enable You

To show Who You are,

Gracious and glorious Father.

In those times,

You teach me to be victorious;

A winner o’er fear or frailty,

You fill my mouth

With endless songs.

Everything within me rises

In adoration

And humble thanksgiving.
