Immersed in mystery

James 4:13-15

Now listen to me, you that say,
"Today or tomorrow we will travel to a certain city, where we will stay a year and go into business and make a lot of money."
You don't even know what your life tomorrow will be!
You are like a puff of smoke, which appears for a moment and then disappears.
What you should say is this: "If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that."

dear Lord…
The world we live in
believes in knowledge
reason and assertiveness
we are expected to be in control
and to appear sure of our coming and going
certainty has become our god
I too lived this life o Lord
but so much have changed
now
all I know
is that my life is in your hands
and my days are immersed
in mystery
and the peace
of Your
presence
amen
