Notes About The Poem

Prayer Is the Answer

I look to the couch where he used to sit
There is an empty place there
No one else would fill it
There was his lair
His indent
Prayer
                      Prayer is the answer	
Prayer
Frees me
When I let it all go
Tell God whatever my plea
How much I have to give and grow
I know that He will answer me and agree

The power of prayer is a great shield in times of stress . It gives comfort when we feel beset by our enemies or abandoned by our friends. It gives us God's wisdom when we ask for it. It is the way we communicate with our Father. It is the way we receive the answers we need when we pray with an open mind. Great Stuff Gina. God Bless, JB
