Standing

Today at work
As I stood washing dishes,
I was actually standing before the Lord,
Telling him my wishes,
And hopes, and dreams, and struggles.
I came to a moment of anger
Because of an unanswered prayer.
I said, "God since I can't have the loaf of bread
Can you at least give me crumbs while I'm waiting there?
I'm not even sure what to say
Or how to pray
Or what to do
But all I know is I'm giving this up to you.
I know that I'm sometimes actually praying for mud
When you want to give me cake,
And I just sit here complaining
As you bake.
So God, in the midst of my pain,
I just lay it down at Your feet.
Your will be done,
Your plan be complete."
