a single beam
illuminating
both danger and safety
in one swoop
the secret
is open eyes…
keeping your eyes on the
beam as it sweeps
around and around
you look
you lift your eyes
what a fire
what a light
may it be lit by God above
may His Spirit be
what shines the light
may we see the people
who are alongside us
with their own agenda’s
and not God’s
may the Light House beam
illuminate them to us
as it shines on the jagged rocks
in warning to those sailing
the waters
and may the Spirit’s beam
illuminate the safe waters
not only where to beware
but where to stay to sail
to travel, to pass through
unscathed
one beam
both danger and safety
God, show us what is wrong
but please also show us what is right
our prayer today is one
of foresight and wisdom
… a Light House Prayer
