Courage In Private

I
When I fall morally
I fall in faith, inwardly
My prayers without answers
Don't deter me, unless I'm addicted
To some moral sin -
Lord Jesus, don't let me slip & spin
Out of thy value system, thy Living Word

II
Miracles for me, usually,
At home or in political spaces
Is the courage to do the right thing, morally:
Love God, Love People, respect the opposite sex
And always, always : recall that God loves justice

Didn't Jesus say prayer should be private?
