Over the past year, I’ve been repeating one prayer with great frequency: “Lord, do something unpredictable and uncontrollable.” That is a scary prayer, especially for a control freak like me, but it doesn’t scare me nearly as much as a life void of holy surprises. And you can’t have it both ways. If you want God to surprise you, you have to give up control. You will lose a measure of predictability, but you will begin to see God move in uncontrollable ways! Anything could happen. Anyplace. Anytime.
