Want

I want to want what

You want.

And I pray that way.

Then I see what I want

and think

“Oh, You want that too”

Because of my aforementioned prayer –

I’m wanting what You want.

But just because my want is a way

Doesn’t guarantee that it is what You want,

Only that You want me to want it,

At least for now.

Maybe not ultimately for me to have it,

Which might seem cruel,

But for me to learn something.

What You’re doing to me is good.

I want what You’re doing to me.
