"New Tools Of Grace "

I find it takes some time to shift
My gears – past tools and toys whose lift
For me was critical – withdrawn –
As ribboned ties draw in at dawn –

Of times it renewed – and shifting goals
Take precedence – now shifting roles
Will have their needs, demands, and calls
Quite different now – above the walls.

Lord, layered-life of Kingdom-space
Is rippling through my life, as grace,
Not needed now in case by case,
Is packaged up as Kingdom-place.

For when one walks above the blocks
To action, speech, and inward thoughts,
No longer needed are the ways
To grace us ’round or through such days.

I know no more than getting here;
My point of view on layer is clear;
But inner dumping of the load –
Of built-up tools and toys now goes.

Help me to strip down for the fight;
Help me prepare to travel light;
As we move on from what’s transpired,
Fulfill in us Your heart’s desires.

Thanks Lord for this.
