Untitled Prayer #1

"God,

I pray you ease my heart
through easing my mind
I give thanks for the ability to read
and the ability to write
but let them only be with words
Don't let my thoughts go astray
Don't let me write Life my way
Too many times will I read into things that mean nothing
And every time I will gain nothing
Grant me patience
and grant me persistence
I hope to get through this story
That You have written
Even if it means sounding out
Each and every word
Like a child struggling
To get through his first book.

Amen."
