Oratio Divina: All I Wanted

Thank you God
for not giving me
what I thought I wanted
what I thought I needed
what I thought I lacked
thank you God
for giving me instead
all I ever wanted
all I ever needed
all I ever lacked
by giving me you
~Robert Van Valkenburgh

Reflection:
In what areas of your life might God be inviting you to release what you think you need so you can more fully receive Him?

Scripture:
“The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack.” — Psalm 23:1
