Office
The lord has given me a cordless nail gun.
Indeed, one of the best!
He has given me a few friends like Wal and gear.
They both taught me how to take my finances to the next level.
What's more, you wiped away many of my doubts by helping me through robbhc and sbd.
Im so happy.
I am so happy that I can't just point to one person and say they helped me. They provided puzzle pieces and partial guidance.
But lord, it was you that knitted the picture together.
I am what I am today
And I will be what I am in one year
Or even ten years
Because of your love, your mercy, and your very real presence.
Wal didn't save me.
Gear didn't.
In fact they probably were resistant to helping me.
But lord you took their wisdom and you shared it with me. Me who had no friends you taught me from scratch. Like a vermin I found my way in. I survived by the scraps and now I am almost fat.
Me who had no experience in renovations.
Me who had no connections
Me who had no friends and have even lost my one friend.
You taught me how to do all things.
You gave me a name.
And children
And taught me how to behave.
You taught me how to be sober.
You taught me how to be a husband
You taught me how to be faithful
You taught me how to be a good father
How to be a good son
You taught me how to run electrical wires
You taught me how to build lights
You taught me how to work in every department.
Every specialty.
You taught me how to be afraid
How to try new things
And how to weasle my way through discomfort
You taught me how to be brave
Because of you Lord,
I am a force to be reckoned with,
Though I have not much,
I have what you have given me and taught me.
I have the sky as a covering
The night for shade
The ground for my wanderings
You have set me apart Lord,
I see it and I believe it.
I shine like a bright gem, only shining brighter by each day.
Lord I will prepare an office.
I will keep my notes organized.
I will be a good steward of your gifts.
Maybe finally my house will be lifted up from the ashes.
With your mercy and your light on my soil
My house will be restored
And my soul made fat
Blessed be the name of the Lord
His son will I praise all the days of my life.
Blessed be the holy one Jesus Christ.
Amen
