hmmm...let me see

Monday of Week 33 in Ordinary Time
Luke 18:35-43


Lord, pleaselet me see  
Luke 18:41

I wonder if that isn’t the constant plea?
But it needs to be inverted in such a way that it is God’s plea:
Cindy...pleasedesire to see!

If I want to respond to God, I will have to WANT to see
I will have to respond with a plea of my own: 
Lord, pleaseLet me see
not what I have before my eyes
Not the familiar
The stuff I understand
The stuff I am so sure I know 
But that which I haven’t remembered to think about
The less obvious
The un-squeaky wheel
The silent sufferer

And God will respond “Yes!”
And I will respond “OMG”


Hmmmm...let me see...
