Thank YOU Lord it’s Friday,
Yes, I really mean it this time.
Yet I should praise each day,
I should really silence my whine.
.
Should be no complaints, no cringing today,
No hurricane, flood, freeze, I’m really just fine!
I’m tired, yes, and behind my agenda, sure,
Simply I just desire catch up time.
.
Yet, Friday is both freedom and busy.
A day of asking – “where did the week go?” – I never have enough time.
Fridays zooms by reminding us WE ARE NOT IN CHARGE OF TIME.
So beware, today, like life, we will run out of time.
.
Why Lord, Why?
Why can we NOT stop time?
Perhaps You desire us to instead feel the stop in Heaven,
Feel the true Heavenly unwind.
.
So for now, I’ll make hay while the sunshines,
I’ll pick up my tasks, I’ll work hard, I’ll continue my rhyme.
I’ll try to remember “these are the good ole days” for doing good,
And be wary of what pulls me away from feeding off YOUR Vine.
.
I THANK YOU LORD, for Friday, for devotion time, and especially for Your Vine.
Amen
