PERSONALIZED PRAYING
I prayed for them this morning.
I whispered their name in prayer.
I claimed for them some scripture
I hope they know that I care.
I prayed for them this morning.
I find concentration very hard.
With children, work and traveling.
Interruptions surround my yard!
God says, “Child I see your heartache.
I know the ones for whom you pray.
You are faithfully praying for them
Even when interruptions come your way.
Some folk have time for intercession.
They pray long and hard with travail.
Others hold prayer in primary focus
With short spurts they enter the veil.
But I understand those timid of heart
Through all kinds of prayer I am glorified
When supplication makes a start.
Keep on basking, dear praying Pilgrim
Be blessed by your own prayer style
Praying ties the hands of the enemy
Praying breaks all bondage piles.
Your style sometimes makes me smile.
As I commune with you praying Christian.
Know every breath in prayer is worthwhile.”
