“Wand Of Wonder ” [A-T Series, #5] ”

The dominance of money in this picture is a cinch –
It’s ’cause it dominates your life and you’re all in a pinch;
Some are on shore (that’s family), and two are on the rock,
Quite solid based, I must admit, but separate – don’t talk.

But in the mid-range heading right, a submarine is poised
To head into some battle zone; machine-gun’s frontal toy;
It’s pretty clear what it’s about, with “Money boat” as sign;
One guy’s laid-back, the other stands, this puzzle on his mind –

“Why don’t they see it is not good for boat to occupy
The landscape, or pursue its prey – look at that darkening sky?
While on the beach they’re all at one with color of the world;
‘Impressive’ , they all seem to think, some distance from its swirl.

Lord, I don’t get what it’s about, perhaps no thing at all;
But somehow I am doubting that, for U-boat is not small;
Please open eyes, and mind, and heart, to hear Your word to me,
That in the end I can show folks the image that I see.

“Okay, there Stu, now buckle up, here goes, for it’s all there –
You’ve got a conflict, yes indeed, for which you’re now prepared –
But you’re on shore with family, onlooker of this scene;
Not in the U-boat at your gun – detached as you can be.

“So get on board and take your place, prepare to get some loot;
You’ll not get cash there on the shore, climb up and join pursuit;
For they’ve gone off with all your cash, your creds (permission’s way);
They’ve set you there behind the beach – connect for I’m not there.

“I’m in the boat, where they’ll not go (regard it as not good);
But by My grace we’ll carry on, that much now understood;
But there is more – your family, on beach they can remain;
This is a job for you, My friend – for enemy you’ll tame.”

Lord, I don’t get it – what I hear is, “Get up off your ass –
Nit-picking’s not the way to go, this job for you’s slapdash;
That’s why I want you to proceed, not others more precise
I’ve set up on the Kingdom-layer, there skating on that ice.

You’ll go alone, mark out the trail so others can proceed;
Just push ahead and blaze your trail, go light, I’ll meet your need;
I’ve not much time to get this done, so press on, get ’er done;
The creds I gave will now suffice until the battle’s won.”

So Lord, I’m hearing, “Action point is in your bailiwick;
You’re beached along with Graham and that needs to end real quick;
So buckle up and push right through; I will not tarry long
As U-boat here beside the shore – step up then we’ll be gone.”

Lord, this is weird; it’s upside down to what I thought Your way
Was in the world, but now I see, You’ve pulled up here today;
Not sure at all what all this means, please help me close the gap
Between the solid rock we’re on, and satisfaction’s cat.

“Sure, Stu, the gun a camera is, “Take shots” as under fire;
You know it’s not an “art” your way, cull out what’s undesired;
You’re not the whole crew on the ship, not even what’s below;
But you’re the “Scout” I trained ’till now – and now your role you know.”

Lord, thanks for this, help me to see what things You wanted shot;
And all the rest let go in You, content with what I’ve got;
Not sure at all what You want done, but sure, I’m good to go;
Thanks for this picture of my task, in You, at last I know.

Thanks Lord for this.
