A PERSONAL PRAYER TO GOD

I feel that prayers are personal, though King David made his known warts and all. In fact on one occasion perplexed he laid them out upon the floor as notes before God. So not all prayers are personal.

I try not to speak

out of turn

but there are times

when that does not work.

I reason that I

am far from alright

then think more about myself

before the night.

I want to care

place my thoughts all over the place

then look at my life

and at my mistakes.

Sadly confused

I am but a grain of sand

washed up on a beach

just another human,

So please My God

Jehovah your name

find the beach where I am

when your time does come.
