The Dash
In this tiny window of time
I have not fully given myself to the pursuit of achievement in sport
Though countless hours were spent lonely in preparation for the game
No, I have not truly sought the grandeur of thought and academia
Though many days and much resource have been committed to these aspirations
Music and the arts, although they grip the very core of what I’ve known to be me
I have not followed through in the perfecting of these skills and talents
Neither has my time been well focused on the best laid plans of business and venture
Although years have been lost at the hand of such worldly pursuits
No, I have achieved nothing of full devotion except the committing of my heart to You my Lord
Here is where my passion lies
The place I seek to make my mark
Trusting in Your supernatural ability to bring forth something great
Something not yet known upon the earth
Prepare me, even if it is only but for an hour
Allow me to fulfill a portion of that which is lacking in the expression of Your body
Surely this faith You have granted me is intended for much more than I’ve come to know thus far
Connect my passion with the foreordained purpose of Your heart
Let me accomplish one thing that might bring the host of heaven to its feet
One expression of devotion that might cause You to receive me standing rather than resting upon Your seat
