"Do not be like a horse or a mule, without understanding,
whose temper must be curbed with bit and bridle,
else it will not stay near you." Psalm 32:9
be a toddler gate
which keeps us from
wandering too far from you.
may your hope
be the childproof lock
on the drawers and cabinets
holding all the disappointments,
temptations, and worries
the Evil One intends
for our souls.
may your love
be that alert button
we can press as many times
as we need, knowing
the battery will never
need replacing.
