Pray II

Andrew, age six, visited his grandparents’ farm.
He sat on Grandpa’s lap and “helped” drive the tractor.

“Oh, Andrew, we’ll miss you when you leave!
How will we be able to manage without your help?”

Home again, Andrew prayed for his grandparents
Who were just barely getting by without him.

This is adorable, marvelous.
We laugh and savor the sweetness.

And then God says to us,
“And you think that you must run my world.

Don’t you see that I drive my tractor,
That I own the farm, and you ride along?

Sweet child, sit on my lap
And let me enjoy your company.”
