Cue Cards

Cue Cards

While parking her car
she watched a man
slowly push a grocery basket
piled high with crushed cans.

A cardboard sign appeared out of nowhere
and on it the word “Pray.”

“Bless this man’s work with dignity, God."

Later that day she observed
a mother walking her daughter from a school playground.
In an instant, some careless teenagers shoved them aside
and ran to a waiting car.

A cardboard sign arose again
and on it the word "Pray."

"God, show Yourself to this child and mother 
and continue to deliver them  from danger."  

Obey those daily cue cards 
held up by the Holy Spirit.
