Like a River

May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.
Then in these swelling and ebbing currents,
these deepening tides moving out, returning,
I will sing you as no one ever has,
streaming through widening channels
into the open sea.

Rainier Maria Rilke

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most High. ~Psalm 46:5

Dear Lord, please make me like that river, gladdening your heart and singing you as no one ever has! Amen!
