A Simple Prayer

by Jill Eisnaugle — Read all 611 poems by Jill Eisnaugle

I wrote this poem on the National Day of Prayer, last week. Whether for the day or the whole year through, the message is still needed.

Monday, May 5, 2008

 

Dear Lord, I ask this simple prayer
Heartfelt and not by notion
Remind us you are always there
With grace and true devotion
So many times, so many souls
Disbelieve your existence
By blaming You for their failed goals
Those botched without persistence
 
This prayer I’m asking openly
Is for those who are blind
To the joy that I always know
When your love comes to mind
I pray those who don’t worship You
Will someday find Your will
Lord, ‘til the very hour they do
Keep these lost ones in view
 
Dear Lord, please know this small request
Was founded in my heart
Because my life You have so blessed
Right from the very start
I wish the world from sea to sea
From sky to ground below
Could share the joys You’ve given me
And the good You bestow.

From sea to sea they are all finding you. I hear there are many christians now in China too. What a wonderful thing it would be for all the world to unite together for peace. Wishful thnking, but prayer helps and yours is great.
