Prayer: It's Tough... Really Tough Sometimes

I've come to be very thankful in the latest portions of my life. But things weren't always so good. I wanted to share the little prayer I made everyday during those times.

--------

Dear God,

On bended knee I've come to pray
Give me strength to face this day

Wisdom in things I have control
Peace of mind with things I don't

Patience with others and others in me when we put up a fight
A good a natured heart to do what is right

In fragile times grant me gentle hands
And a sweet tongue that never reprimands

Lion hearted courage when times get tough
Poise, make me rock steady in my faith, when the oceans get rough

All these things I ask of you
Because the path I travel, is traveled by few

Amen
