Dear God, no one can run away from Your presence. Nature honours You at all times and gives up anyone who tries to run away from Your presence. The waters, wind, trees, rocks, hills, mountains, animals and all creations do not strive with You. Man in his nature, however, always tries to run away from Your presence but You have a way of catching up with him as nothing that You created is capable of harbouring anyone You choose to seek out of the deepest of places. There is great wisdom in going in the direction You choose because in this lies rest from all avoidable troubles. Help me not to flee from Your presence but to go in the way that You instruct me. Obedience is indeed better than sacrifice and You have no pleasure in the offerings of fools. Prompt obedience saves humans quite a lot of trouble. I choose to be wise as I walk in Your precepts because foolishness costs so much in the long run. Animals, plants and other elements created by You do not challenge Your authority and this explains why their times and seasons are not dependant on what anyone says, does or makes available. Their supply, increase, survival, productivity and so much more is made possible by You and You alone. If plants and animals can honour You so much they depend on You for all things and do not go against Your will, knowing that You created me in Your image and gave me rule over all creatures, I will honour You no matter how hard it seems because therein lies my unusual victory. AMEN.
