THE REFLECTION

in #steemchurch6 years ago

I got up early one morning,
And rushed right into the day,
I had so much to accomplish
That I didn't have time to pray.

Problems just tumbled around me
And heavier came each task
"Why doesn't God help me"? I wondered.
He answered, "You didn't ask".

I wanted to see Joy and Beauty,
But the day toiled on, gray and bleak
I wondered why didn't God show me,
He said, "But you didn't seek".

I was so frustrated and tried to come to God's presence;
I used all my keys at the lock,
God gently and lovingly chided,
"My child, you didn't knock".

THE DIFFERENCE

I woke up early this morning,
And paused before entering the day;
I had so much to accomplish
That I had to take time to pray.
