Simple Prayers

SIMPLE PRAYERS


Lord, let me be a ray of hope
To someone who has a need
May they see Your love in me
Through my every word and deed


Lord, give me strength today
To meet my every task
Draw my heart near to Yours,
Dear Lord, is what I ask


Lord, give me peace inside
That can only come from You
Help me trust in all Your ways
And guide me in all I do


Lord, thank You for the blessings
You bestowed on me today
Help me be a blessing to others
Is what I humbly pray


Lord, You know my every need
Before I even begin to pray
Help me trust You will provide
All I might need today

The Making Of Simple Prayers...

Good morning! I start this blog today with excitement of a new venture. The making of Simple Prayers Wall Plaques started with one poem which I will post in the next entry. The journey has escalated into nearly 20 poetic prayers at present..and growing! These prayers are written for targeted population groups, and hopefully will touch the hearts and lives of people in many roles and situations.

The intent of these prayers is to help people devote their every day to the Lord..seeking His guidance, protection, will, strength, peace, and ways...no matter what role they play in life. Or situation they are in. I have been working on creating simple, attractive wall plaques for these prayers so they may be hung in a place easily seen, read, and focused on when needed. I even wrote a prayer for every UK Wildcat fan, our Kentucky horsemen, jockeys and fishermen. My next attempt will be to write one for our hunters...

I am humbled. Over and over again. For some reason, God continually gives me words to say to speak to the hearts of people by way of poetic words. I don't know why. I don't know why me. All I know is that these words come so swiftly at times I have to stop what I'm doing and go write them down for fear of "losing them." I've been writing poetry and other prose all of my life, or so it seems! My mother would ask me to write about someone or some event ever since I can remember. My father and I would leave little silly poems for each other every morning since he left for work long before I woke up.

So here we go! I don't know what God wants out of this journey yet, other than obedience. I feel in my heart that I am supposed to do this. I don't know to what degree or for how long. But, for now, I am going down the path set before me. :) Coming posts will include pictures of samples that can be made in most colors of choice. I hope you find these words a blessing to your heart and to your life. And hopefully some will just make you smile...
