Help me, O Lord,
to rest secure in your love and promises
on those days when it feels like I am pouring water through a sieve,
when all my efforts seem to be as solid as a puff of smoke,
when my best efforts seem futile,
useless,
unwanted.
Walk with me especially at times like these, Lord,
as I go through my day.
Be there with each step,
no matter how trivial
no matter how grave.
Give me your patience
when I feel the irritation surging,
give me your wisdom
when I want to say the wrong word,
give me your endurance
when I want to play when I should work.
Help me to love,
in the way I interact with those around me,
in the plans I make,
in how I use my assets.
Bring your own precious self to mind
as I work through this day,
and let me never forget
how you might present yourself
through the needs of another,
and at the end of the day,
may I know
I have spent the day in your company
and thus rest contented
in the palm of your hand.
Amen.
I pray this too.
Amen.
Thanks KAC.

What a awesome poem, KC! So often I will read a poem you have written, and think “ how does she know what I am feeling right now?”!!
May God Richly Bless your talents.
