Worry came to visit. I dropped to my knees and prayed. Lord, please forgive me if I've gone astray. Some days I feel lost, not knowing what to do. It is in those times when I sit talking quietly to you. What a peace then overcomes me when I lay my burdens bare. There is no greater gift than God's precious love~ It is everywhere. I've seen the paintings in the air brushed by the hand of God~ Lonestar |

GentleSpirit~ Lovely expressions of the real serenity to be found in turning to Him~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

I can relate to this so well. My Bible and prayer are always at the head of my bed and I cling to them. The absolute peace that overcomes me when I ask God to lay his hand on me is undescribable, but I am sure you too know this feeling. Beautifully put, thanks. |

Worry used to be a big part of my life, it changes nothing, a waste of time and most likely the things one worries about never come to pass. It is the things you never even thought about that happen, so as in the Lord's prayer, we should say "Thy will be done" I enjoyed your poem very much. |

When I grow anxious and the silence is driving me insane. I sit down and pray as well. The calmness that washes over me is amazing. The love I receive from God and Jesus is amazing. I wish I didn't struggle so much with surrendering. I love your poem. Thank you for sharing. If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |
