Oh Lord Inspire Me.
Oh Lord,
I yearn for culture to fan the flames of my imagination, so
lead my eyes to look upon strange and wonderful things.
Keep my interest and creativity alive and flowing, and
let me be captivating in all that I do and all that I say.
Help me to enjoy the world and the diversity within it
and spur me to infuse movement and curiosity in others.
Allow me to use the gift you have given me to achieve my goals
and help me to develop and extend my skills with precision.
Lay before me a panoramic scene of my daily life
so that I may view all the colour and wealth of natures art.
Give me time and space so that I may finish the work I have started,
thus leaving a legacy that my family can be proud of.
Instil in me the ability to write with kindness, sensitivity and compassion by
facilitating me, and helping me understand the needs of my brothers and sisters.
Most of all Lord inspire me to write about interesting subjects,
symbolising issues the world wants to hear and think about.
Thank you Lord for your unconditional love and blessings.

Poetry: Prayer
MY PRAYER
O Jehovah-Jireh, my Provider
please give me wisdom to know
all that I possess is because of You.
Without You all
by Rosa Lee
Feel, Mother Earth, the love I have for you
Touch me inside and teach me what to do
I am a child, learning of your ways
Touch
A TAP ON MY SHOULDER
A tap on my shoulder
just what I need.
Someone to remind me
now and then.
Pray often, not
necessarily short
A silent prayer to the Lord,
Is all I have to show,
My devotion, my desire,
And to let him know.
I clasp my hands and bow
You are the words I speak
the thought in my mind
You are the world I grieve
while it's falling behind
You are the hope
