Pray For Me

My head is clouded, I’m afraid
With clamoring thoughts of despair
Where once there was a mind that
Could reason and compare
Now all I have is confusion
To mildly put it clear
But that is not what I am made of
This I know from earlier years

My mind was clear and focused
My thoughts came calmly across
Not blairing rampid as they are 
Taking no heed for what they cause
I desperately want my mind back
As it once so nicely was
So I can quit hurting those 
I love and care for so much

It isn’t that I do not try
My mouth just takes the lead
It seems as though it takes my mind
Quite a while to get up to speed
By then the damage is done
And I feel so very bad
For again I have made another 
feel so very sad

Please pray for me my friends
That God would touch my mind
He made me who I am
And this injury is trying to steal
What I once so happily had

Bev I think we all have this problem from time to time and that is the best medicine we can apply. Prayers are so much stronger than most people realize, so know there are a whole bunch of prayers going up for you in my email circle. Leakey,Texas may not be a very big place but it is full of prayer warriors. God bless. Ron
