My Psalm 123

---I ask that if you are reading these, that you go and read the original psalm for yourself, before you read my rendition, and let the words of your Maker soak deep into your bones.---

From down here on the floor
I lift my eyes to you,
gazing headlong into your welcoming arms.

A daughter in need of wisdom
A friend in need of guidance
I look to you,
waiting for your response.

Show me the favor you have placed
on my life and on theirs.
Show us your glory once again,
that we might stand in awe.

Life has thrown, in fact, is continuing to throw us
curve balls of frustration and confusion.
It tries to swallow us
and constantly throw us off track.

Steady us. Right us Papa.
