PRAY

Pray when thou art feeling low

Pray when thou art on a high

 

Pray when thou art sick and ailing

Pray when thou art healthy and well

 

Pray when there are fears and doubts assailing

Pray when thou art brimming with confidence

 

Pray when thou experience pain and heartache

Pray when thou feel to joyously celebrate

 

Pray when failure knocks at thine door

Pray when victory sweeps thou off the floor

 

Pray when thou art sitting

Pray when thou art on thine bed lying

 

Pray not merely to ask

Pray also to praise

 

Seek not a reason to pray

For thou never seek a reason to breathe

 

Aspire not to pray only here or there

For the Omnipresent God is everywhere

 

As breath to the body

So is prayer for the soul

 

Connect thine soul with thine Soulgiver

Thou wilt relish His companionship forever more

 

But . . .

 

Have faith.

 

That’s central to prayer.

 

 

“Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
