And he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, the top of it reaching to heaven (Genesis 28:12; NRSV).
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28; NIV).
Let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him (Hebrews 10:22; NLT).
Lord,
During contemplation,
I slowly climb a ladder
Up to you,
Rest a while
In your presence,
Then descend
Back to the world,
Ready to face
My day.
