O GOD I NEED THEE
I need thy sense of time
Always I have an underlying anxiety about things.
Sometimes I am in a hurry to achieve my ends
And I am completely without patience. It is hard for me
To realize that some growth is slow.
That all processes are not swift. I can’t always discriminate
Between what takes time to develop and what can be rushed,
Because my sense of time is dulled.
I measure things in terms of happenings.
O to understand the meaning of perspective
That I may do all things with a profound sense of leisure- of time.
- Howard Thurman
