Day 7: Wonder

Wonder

My mind is swimming with wonder

I wonder what is in store for me

how I will know which paths to follow

and which to turn away from

I wonder

if I am who I am supposed to be

if I am doing what I was meant to do

If anyone ever knows

If I will ever know

I wonder

if my past is truly in the past

if I am living fully in the present

if I can trust myself to let go

and let my future be what will be

Wonder

My eyes are full of wonder

From the places I have been

to the places I dream to go

and all of the wonders that surround me here at home

Your wonders

are breathtaking

Beauty is in every detail

The rose center's youthful spiral

gives way to its falling petals

Your wonders

surround me

seen and unseen

With every season of life 

my eyes have opened wider

I wonder at your wonders

and your wonders

help me wonder no more

For you are clearly present

in all the wonders of the world

Psalm 8:3-9

³ When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers—
    the moon and the stars you set in place—
⁴ what are mere mortals that you should think about them,
    human beings that you should care for them?
⁵ Yet you made them only a little lower than God
    and crowned them with glory and honor.
⁶ You gave them charge of everything you made,
    putting all things under their authority—
⁷ the flocks and the herds
    and all the wild animals,
⁸ the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea,
    and everything that swims the ocean currents.

⁹ O Lord, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!
