Oratio: Where He Needs Me

Sometimes the way
I least want to go
is precisely the way
the Lord requires
for me to travel
and the place I fear being
above all others
is exactly where he
needs me to stay
His will is perfect
it defies understanding
the mystery of his love
will carry me through
this confusion and fear
