How Can I Say It Differently

Whatever You say God
Who am I to say it differently?
You see things to come
You know what it will look like
I can’t dispute You
My mind is of natural mind
I don’t see what You see
Think what You think 
Envision what You will
I don’t see how You can do it
The magnificent feast
But You will do it
I will trust in You
Have Your will
What You say will be 
What You promised will come
Yes Lord
It is all in You
Deliver, fulfill
Personalized, specialized
By Your own making
Who can resist it?
Yours God 
Are of unequal
Unparalleled
Unchangeable
Uncomprehending
It’s all Yours
That You have called them from the beginning
Destined
Predetermined 
To be the absolute ours
God, how can I say it differently?
