I lift up my eyes to the hills--where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of Heaven and earth. - PSALM 121:1-2

... may He dwindle Hannah and Ike
and Josephine to mere puddles of
mischief  --- Charlie.

Hear Me Now

Take out the heated air being
swirled counterclockwise into
the eye of chaos; calm the wind
before it gets to Cat 5 strength;
remove the flooding prior to
landfall until all that falls are
gentle, nourishing rains---You
once asked me to trust and
walk upon the waves.  I'm not
that brave---still the storms.
Better yet, help me to praise
You in them.  Amen.  Amen.

(c) 2008, Karla Dorman (9/4)

I like the "Better yet" part. Really wise. We don't normally think of "seeing" Him in the storms, floods, etc.

I'm sure many are praying this prayer but maybe not as elegantly as this. Bless all of you. Love, Bonnie

Hello Karla,

You wrote such a masterpiece in this poem it is almost visible to me.
It's a great prayer/poem, and honest ("I am not that brave...still the storms"). Just excellent!

So far we've been fortunate, but you live closer to danger's edge than I now. Glad Gustav at least mitigated. Luckily it is NOT a La Nina year, maybe they can weaken. Ike is a worry, but September is a long month.
You've seemed to catch that "gentle rainshower" right over that roof! You must wear your camera around your neck!
Sorry I haven't been by... Later, michael
