Morning prayer

 Two Mes 

Before me stands two mes

The one I am

And the one I want to be

 

The one I am

Busily goes about two part time jobs

Cleaning house, making meals

 

The one I want to be

Takes classes, goes ebiking and kayaking

Plays the ukulele, paints, speaks Spanish well

The me I am 

writes poetry every day

the me I want to be writes and publishes novels

 

The me I am now

does devotions by routine

Goes to church on Sundays

 

The me I want to be

Relates to the Lord moment by moment

Aware and obedient to His guidance

 

The me I am now

Travels where buddies dictate

The me I want to be travels where the Lord dictates

 

The me I am now

Is 45 pounds over weight

The me I want to be is in good shape

 

The me I am now

Watches a lot of TV and scrolls on Facebook

The me I want to be spends little time on that

 

Lord, I really want to be

Who You want me to be

And be content.

 

Show me what that looks like.

Is it the me I am, the one I want to be

Or a mixture of the two or a third me?
