Anywhere is a
place of prayer, if God is there...
I have prayed in
the morning light,
I have prayed
all alone,
I have prayed in
the silence of the darkness,
and I have
prayed to the tune of a lark's song.
I have prayed in
the midst of a triumph,
and I've prayed
when I suffered defeat...
I have prayed
near the sands of the seashore
where the waves
of the ocean beat.
I
have prayed through suffering and heartache,
eyes blinded
by tears, and I
have prayed in churches and chapels too,
But, I have
often I had the feeling,
that my prayers
were not getting through.
And I realized
then that our heavenly
Father is not
really concerned where we pray
or impressed by
our manner of worship
or the eloquent
words that we say.
He is only
concerned with our feelings.
He looks deep
into our hearts
and hears the
cry of our souls deep need
that no words
could ever impart.
So it isn't the
prayer that's expressive
or offered in
some special spot...
It's the sincere
plea of a sinner,
and God knows if
we're sincere or not
God can tell
whether we honestly seek
His forgiveness
and earnestly mean what we say,
And then and
only then, God answers
the
prayers that we fervently pray.......
