Pentecostal Prayer Day 18

If you can't tell what I believe by watching my habitual actions,
Our relationship is built on only superficial attractions.
I prefer to follow example of others, rather than to lead,
But I want to observe and process before I proceed.

When the choices are to lead, follow, or get out of the way,
By myself, while I think, is where I will often stay.
I used to feel great grief in being left behind,
But in hurrying, to The Sacred Spirit, I'm blind.

I love to brainstorm with others about my professed plan,
But my actions are based on the values on which I stand.
My prayer for Pentecost is that we can agree on common goals,
And, from these visions, a set of universal values mold.
