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..

As usual a beautiful prayer for us all to consider, and extremely well done, shine on Princess!
