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

-- 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."
