Young soul's playing in the surf

This prayer/reflection is a direct response to a magnificent talk I heard Dr. Peter Kreeft give through his website. (I highly suggest visiting and listening to some of the more evoking passages.)

Thank you God,
for all that you have given me
for I know you know sometimes I don't know
what's right for me and sometimes I loose footing

but in the moment of silence and hopeless nanosecond
when absolutely nothing is keeping me from the life after
I hear a faint rush of you're growing arms and I rush into them
with belligerence and total submission

You can have me because you are true and narrow
Thank you, thank you, oh my Lord God, Thank You
