In All That We Achieve...

 Inspired, in part by a paragraph from this book previously mentioned here



In all that we achieve today, however common its demand
If we approach its come-what-may, with willing heart and open hand
And humble consciousness of holy ground beneath each step we take
Aware of how footfalls compound to leave a pathway in its wake

Then we will not forget to ask, ‘Dear God to purify each quest’
And we will find within each task an impetus to do our best
And face each challenge that we meet with more than self- int’rest in mind
Because, a world of little feet, are following not far behind

Where it is up to us to show, without a shadow of a doubt
Through ups and downs of yes-and-no, Who, what we do is all about
So pray, in all that we achieve, as aftermath of pathways wend
In sacred steppingstones we leave/weave, they lead to Heaven in the end

Ps.119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet 
And a light to my path.

Today's part-inspiration!

below continued from above...

I love how the paragraph below is a metaphor for life!
