The Upside of Impatience

Spending time with God, 

I realized that I value short, efficient,

But outsized in meaning things.


Don’t give me a thousand page novel.

That’s gratuitous. 

How about a novel in verse?


Don’t write a book 

If a blog post will do.


Give me the bottom line, 

But wrap it in stories if you can.


Perhaps my impatience 

Is actually part of God’s greater design.

I had never thought of this.
