Missing His Grace – v2

So busy in his mind
how he thought it should be
the story of Naaman
of healing that almost wasn’t
nearly missing God’s grace

Healed because he stopped
listened to his servants
following the word of the prophet
doing what he had been asked
healed in Jordan’s waters

Life not always
as we have planned it
thinking of slights, anger,
distracting us from His blessing
missing the grace of God

Needing, like Naaman,
to be faithful, obedient,
focused on our Savior,
His healing coming,
not focused on the world
