So back in Joshua's day You did all sorts of stuff to make Yourself visible....the Ark of the Covenant and parting the Jordan river for all the Israelites to cross...Israelites who'd missed the parting of the Red Sea, even dropping a wall for them after of course their obedience to being circumsized and marching around it .....

Now You have us.....us who believe and follow Your Son...who in that humble belief have the Holy Spirit....It takes humilty to accept and we tend to live....ok I.... tend to live 'arrogant'..... this doesn't sound like the best bet to me.... but luckily I am not God....You love us so much and give us all these chances....it's kind of ridiculous and mind blowing and humbling.....

I pray today the humility and gratitude to live humble and desperately dependent instead of my usual self protective and arrogant...and in that humility and dependence I pray to not miss any opportunity.....that's it... please not to miss any counter intuitive opportunity.....
