Pray.

I have been on my knees
before
Lifted my hands to the heavens

Mumbled aimless words
in the hope that You would hear
me.

Within the confines of my
double-brick house
or perhaps
tightlywrapped in my thickest quilt?

I am begging You
in between heavy sobs
that make my throat busy

should i speak clrer?
clearer?
CLEARER?

do you turn a volume knob God?

i am drawing pictures in my head for You
writing long, long letters ..
abbreviating words like:
JC, HS, phil, rom, col, gen
ysiC, jess x

ON MY PHONE I TXT MY SiC WHO IS IN HOSP.
& ASK THAT YOU HEAL HER BODY
BCOS I KNOW THAT U R SOVEREIGN

Lord,
even
online I approach Your throne of grace,
because You know what is in my heart
already

before I have even opened
mymouth.

Holy Spirit,
transform me from the inside
out
So I may
become more like the
Son..

Amen.

I love this :-)

Love the styling and lyrical touches ... but most of all, I love this prayer for it's heart and meaning.

Praise God!
