My Prayer
15 January, 2003
Author: Mark Spencer

Lord in heaven, to you I pray
For guidance in my works today.

Let me not stumble from my path,
To seek your love and not your wrath.

Give me patience in all I do,
And give me strength to see things through.

For you're my beacon in the night.
When darkness falls, you are my light.

If not for you I would not be,
Nor too would all the things I see.

You are my teacher and my friend.
You're my beginning and my end.

In all I am, in all I do,
I dedicate my life to you.

And though I know you're always there,
Still must I offer you this prayer.

To keep me from the paths of sin,
In Jesus name I pray......Amen.

Another Poem that speaks for itself!

Mark, I love the company you keep, and of whom you speak. Your words are what we feel, and in many ways, what we might say, if, only, we took the time.
I have found that some of us, well, actually, most of us, myself included, never even mention God, until we need him. I find it ironic that we know when we need him yet, never take the time to speak to him.

Thanks again

Martin
