#BlogElul 24 Giving

BROKEN   DREAMS

As children bring their broken toys
With tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God
Because He was my Friend.
But then instead of leaving Him
in peace to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own.
At last I snatched them back and cried,
"How can You be so slow?"
"My child," He said, "What could I do?
You never did let go."

Giving is about presenting to another and it is about letting go - creating space for another, and perhaps creating space for God.
