Learning to Trust the Slow Work

Scripture  

Habakkuk 2:3 (NRSVUE)  

For there is still a vision for the appointed time;  

it speaks of the end and does not lie.  

If it seems to tarry, wait for it;  

it will surely come, it will not delay.



Refrain  

I trust the slow work of God.



Quote / Poem  

Parker J. Palmer, from *Let Your Life Speak*  

“Before you tell your life what you intend to do with it,  

listen for what it intends to do with you.  

Before you tell your life what truths you have decided to live up to,  

let your life tell you what truths you embody.  

Vocation does not come from willfulness.  

It comes from listening.  

Listening to the quiet, persistent voice  

that invites you to become  

the person you already are.”
