The Game

Thanks, O Lord, for his maturing life
Blessing us as we disbursed last night;
Walking through that Babel-gifting thought,
Citing source (for him) of words he brought.

Now he’s built the platform that he needs,
Help him blend your giftings with his deeds;
Old Aaronic blessing set the depth –
Let Your Spirit deepen all the rest.

Training wheels of others’ insight’s nice –
Guidance, words, and pieces of advice
Are the launching pad on which to stand,
As he goes beyond his present land.

All that training does is open doors;
Gets you up to bats so you can score;
It’s the start not end – new batter up,
Focus shifts to ball and Victor’s cup.
