Day 23 – 3/11

“Today I will listen
Louder than I speak,
And look for the tables
That Jesus is flipping.
For our God carved
Words into stone.
Our God led the people
In a pillar of smoke.
Our God was present
In the still, small voice,
In the middle of the storm,
And where people rejoice.
And if God was showing them the way,
Then I am confident,
God is here today—
Dropping bread crumbs
And leaving signs,
Flipping tables
Where oppression dines.”
