Ever Expanding

For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth does flow.

So Lord cleanse my heart, from head to toe!



Stir inside me your compassion.

And dress my heart in Godly fashion!



Give me wisdom, more understanding.

Then my heart will be ever expanding!



Yes, from the heart the mouth will speak.

Therefore, I pray, for a heart that’s meek!

That is well said and a beautiful way to think and be. If only we could remain in such a frame of mind all the time. You are a prolific writer. Keep putting pen to paper. D.Kay
