My Prayer

Oh lord, I feel in despair and I feel like my world is falling apart around me. I shall rejoice even when feelings of despair consume me. Because I know you have overcome the world. Although heaviness is present I shall cast my cares upon you, and look to the hills for which cometh my help. I shall rejoice in the valley as well as the mountaintop! Oh Lord, I trust in you and know this feeling well pass. Although sadness is present living waters flow within my soul and the joy of the Lord is my strength. I recognize each emotion but it will not consume me. My walk with you is based on truth and faith. Living waters flow through my soul and I'm being made whole day by day. I obtain new mercies each day. I am your vessel oh Lord, let thy will be done in my life. 04/20/2023

A poem of total surrender to the Lord, as you know that He is the source of the Living Water. Once you drink from that fountain, you shall not thirst. Life can be joyous and painful. But God gives the hope to wade through life and will lead you to safe shores. Beautifully written dear Alexis.

I enjoyed reading your testimony of faith in your written prayer. Life is not easy sometimes it is very hard and sometimes we feel almost impossible, but He is always there for us. Thank you for sharing this testimony and for dropping by my page. Sara

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 John 4:4 NIV Beautiful prayer my friend,
