When Heavens Door Feels Shut

In all my days here upon earth from day one as I remember I've stammered pre-school and beyond and even joined its association member But through all my time it's been a battle through school, work and now being retired most words were really difficult to say making one to think my tongue has expired When becoming a Christian in year '82 becoming earnest in prayer to daily access then pleaded with God to touch my tongue but nothing occurred finding no success They've been times I felt God saying leave it alone my grace meets your need but then at other times, He spurred me on to try new approach and see where it'll lead But now during covid, it's bad as ever believing Jesus is Lord but can't get through feels so helpless words as hard to say dries up throat feels so hoarse all so blue But I won't give in before God's throne I'll persist as the widow seeking bread for God answered her just to have peace always pray and don't lose heart Jesus said(Luke 18:1) ('And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.') Luke 18:1 (ESV)
