Praying For Strength

No, my Lord,

I do not pray for mercy but only for

moral strength,

strength, my own wings to grow, 

hight to heavens to fly 

and
 
nearer to Thee my soul to be!

You know Demetrios what is more important to you and that is your soul closer to God. My wish also my friend. Your photographs uplift us by their beauty in these dark times. We are all envious of your beautiful garden my friend. It is a visual joy to see such beauty. I can picture your poetry book with such lovely pictures. Your uplifting words with heavenly pictures of Gods beautiful creations. What a treat for the reader. Be blessed my friend...

We must walk our own paths in life and prove ourselves worthy but occasionally when we falter its then we need to pray for his guiding hand. Tom
