| Mar.09.01: Light For The Day - "The Road Of Prayer." -- Philippians 4:6 (RSV) "Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." ------------------- "The Road of Prayer" The direction in life can be so distant Our vision can become a blur At one time life seemed so easy Our answers seemed so sure But down this path are many roads And its hard to see the way Why do we take so much upon ourself And make it harder for us each day? Our burdens are so heavy Oh lay them at His feet We're here to find the victory No longer face defeat The secret place is where we go To lay our burdens down The prayer road that we seek Its direction we have found As we sit and ponder our events of life We see now the road we should take The solitude of its quietness, up a hill, beside a lake Our prayer road is the one for us We will cast our cares upon Thee We will follow it until its beauty we share In our secret place of prayer we'll be -- Connie Schmoll -------------------- -- Jeremiah 33:3 (RSV) "Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things which you have not known." -- Matthew 6:6 (RSV) "But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." |
