Congregationalists Learning to Pray

Getting a slow start on prayer discipline, God.
But, you know me and my good intentions…
Why do you have such infinite patience with me?
When I promise myself, and you,
that I will try harder to live a more healthy,
faithfull, vibrant life, to honor you,
why don’t you throw down a thunder bolt to remind me
that I’m doing it again, slouching, being lazy,
taking the low road through life?
You certainly are a more tolerant parent than
I would be in your sandles.
Loving God, help me, today, to remember
your son’s leadings and
to try, yet again, as best
my sorry soul is able, to follow…
even for a day…..
amen
