Abiding In Prayer

Worrying is just not wise...
Not a trait to exercise.
It simply will not help a thing
But always more stress it will bring.

Through prayer we can take things in stride,
For then in peace we can abide.
We’ll find the answers which we need
And learn how we should then proceed.

Prayers sometimes say to wait
While God is working to create
Solutions which are truly sound.
His wisdom always is profound

Prayer saves us so much trouble.
Without it problems sometimes double.
God will hear our plea or prayer
And help us so we do not err.

“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you, Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
John 14:27 KJV
