Look For Light His Gifts To Come
[my first post as co-moderator…]


Do not think prayers go unanswered,
Do not think He doesn’t listen near
All the words in mouth or mind
To His heart he holds them dear…

Your time and mine is not His to bear
He has reigned in millions to our one down here,
So when you pray, know for what you ask
For it may be gift given, or it may be a task…

And in His time he will be sending
To you your prayer while on knees bending,
So struggle not to question when it comes
Just remember He is whom it is from.

So thank you, Lord, for this treasure
Now I pray I live up to Passions measure!

"So struggle not to question when it comes
Just remember He is whom it is from."

I think everyone needs to remember that.  The world would be a better place.
