Daily Prayable

Sometimes,
I don't want to hear
what is being said
so clearly to me.

The solution

I've already devised

takes less time

and isn't as much trouble.

 

Help me to see,

that to give,

as You would have me give,

means dipping into

what I'd rather keep.

 

Help me hear

what is being said,

as well as what is not.

 

Help me do

what you would have me do,

as a way to praise You

who gave me all.
