Quiet Prayer

To be
Quiet
At prayer
Knowing
Just this:

Bitter
Sweet or
Angry
Words can
Bounce back

Even when
It's just
To note
What is

But God
Has heard
It all
In prayer
Even
When left
Unsaid

This is really lovely, Ruth. As for me and my mouth, I've given God a LOT to hear lately.

Meredith- Thanks. (Yeah me too!)

I've been upset all morning about a terrible fight I had with my husband. This would be a wonderful prayer to say together tonight when we get home. Thanks. God bless.
