I Need To Pray...

Someone came to me in a

moment of despair.

Quite discouraged, he asked

for some prayer.

I didn't feel like praying

this particular day.

The way things were going...

I didn't want to pray.

There once was a time in life,

I felt God' s awesome power.

But lately, my spiritual life

has been going sour.

Praying for someone is what a Christian's

“supposed to do.”

But I haven't been living the way

Christ wants me to.

I had accepted and rejected

God's unfailing grace.

By allowing things into my life,

Jesus was no longer in 1^st place.

If I pray for anyone,

it really should be me.

The bondages need to be broken—

I need to be free!

As I focus on Christ and give him

all of my attention.

My prayer life will then be

in the right direction.

To you, Lord Jesus,

cleanse my life throughout.

Praying to YOU is what being a

Christian is all about!
