| Have you ever had days when nothing seems to go right? Nothing you say and nothing you do helps to make anything any better? I have lots of those kind of days. Those are the days when I feel like the prodigal son who took his inheritance and walked away. I forget that I have a loving heavenly Father who will help me through if I just talk to Him. I go about my day fretting, worrying and trying to make things right all by myself and I usually make more of a mess of things! It was at the end of one of those days that I penned this poem. |
| My Prayer Oh Lord, I need to talk to You for just a little while I believe that You will listen because I am Your child I know You must be busy with all You have to do But I've been feeling rather lonely and so far away from You I used to hear Your still small voice at times throughout my day But my life gets so noisey that I cannot hear what You say I used to feel Your peace - the kind that passes all understanding But the world wants a piece of me and it can be so demanding I find it hard to keep my focus on You and Your love I seem to always look down instead of seeking You above Father God, I need You more than anyone or any thing I know that only You and You alone can make my saddened heart sing Father, I know that it is to You I belong So why do I continue to do what I know is wrong? At times I feel so weary and I cannot keep the pace I can hardly stand, let alone, run the race Lord, there is something I need to say How do You do it? How do You find a way? How can You still love me? Dear Lord, I know it must be tough I am so glad that You do and I could never thank You enough So my prayer, this day this hour, is that You would put Your arms around me Please take this heart of mine that is bound and set it free Oh Lord, draw me to my knees in some peaceful, quiet place Until my one and only desire is to seek Your loving face Help me to remember all that You have done And how You loved me enough to give Your only Son His sacrifice has saved me from eternal damnation Father God, ignite the fire in me and restore the joy of my salvation Paula Pina - 1999 |
