What an opportunity!
How marvelous.
Awesome!

Come.
Take a break.
Cease your labor.
Whatever it is, it can wait.
Lay down your book, golf club, fishing pole.
Dry your hands; tie your shoes; close the door.
Drive the old beater that needs a new muffler.
Ride your motorcycle. Drive your sports car.
Strap the kids into the mini-van.
Take a bus       Hail a cab 
Ride a bicycle     Rollerblade
Use a cane        or walker
Just                 come


Let.
Allow.
Permit.
Confess frailties.
Open mind and heart.
Disallow fear and doubt.
Shun platitudes (praise god)
Adjust attitude (Praise God!)
Gently shush your fussing child.
Ignore the peeling ceiling plaster.
Shrug off the squawking sound system.
Exchange self-consciousness for God-consciousness.
Enable the Holy Spirit; acknowledge His presence; expect His response.
Relinquish control.
Prepare
Give in
Let

Man O' man! How'd you do that? Creative, wonderful and lovely to look at, too. I love the words and the sentiment described, but I was also fascinated by the form. I can barely get my entries lined up straight with this format; I can't imagine making pictures with it. I think you must be a genius with word and form.
