Teach me
About Truth.
Tell me when to
Remain silent
And Listen for
Further instructions.
I tend to fly on my own
And it appears best
To follow YOUR lead,
Rather than my own.

Touch me
With Patience,
So I don't
Do something
Half-witted,
Embarrassing,
Or unbecoming.
Show me the way
To be a Loving woman
Always.

Forgive me
My doubtful mind.
Place YOUR
Divine words
In my mouth so
I hurt no one.
Keep me on
The right path
So I don't wander
Aimlessly.

Love me
Regardless
Of my mistakes,
My ignorance,
My selfish ways.
Love me
In spite of
My foolish choices
In matters
Of the heart.

Teach Me, Dear Lord..
