pray for others – v4

start with prayer
with confession
with an acknowledgement
of the position of the Creator
honor God, praise His name
open up, be honest
cry out to God
for what you need

but not purely selfish
don’t only pray for yourself
we should pray for others
not just ourselves
but most important
be honest, fully
share what eats at you
what weighs on your heart

God wants us to ask
from our heart, from our being,
God will answer
God knows what we need
on our walk, our path
God will answer
in God’s time only
God will give us
the desires of our heart.
