In His Presence

Lord, I am tired of wondering “What are you doing?”

I am fidgety and restless wondering “What is your plan?”

The same old question “Are we there yet?”

Seems to echo back bouncing around like a rubber ball with no direction

El Shaddai, El Shaddai

You are the God who can do everything!

Why does it seem like you aren’t doing anything?

I am pleading for your power, your purpose, your plan

To be known

To be plain

But mostly, more than answers to my one million questions

I am pleading to be allowed into your presence

And to there remain
