Would that I were faithful in prayer
in so many things.
That I would have the maturity to turn off the noise
and seek what faithfulness requires.
Solitude first,
Prayer compels, then demands an acquiescence of the will.
It asks for a level of trust and ascent,
surrender and humility.
Things I do not have, but as I sit and listen,
I am able to ask
for less of me that I might be, faithful.
Ya'll, thanks for sharing.

I’m an over thinker and incessant seeker. I’m grateful for God’s grace. This is a quiet, contemplative blog. I write my poetry, essays and offer my photographs.
I hope you will stay and read a while.
All photography and words are mine, unless noted. Find me on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram.
