A Writer's Prayer (2)
By Chrissy Siggee
Guide me, Lord, in the steps according to your will.
Lead me to the place I need to be.
Show me the road that can only lead to you.
Guide me along this path that you have placed before me.
May I truly know your purpose for me.
Teach me, Jesus, that it is not about how fast I grow.
Like the trees that grow beside a stream, make me sturdy and strong.
Teach me patience to learn as I progress.
Show me how to accept critiques and challenges as they come.
May I, above all, accept this gift to me.
Help me, God, to see the ability in other writers.
May I encourage them in their gifts and strengths.
Open my heart so I may not only read their words
but hear and feel them through to my very soul.
May I not criticise or frown upon other writers' works.
Give all FaithWriters members world-over a heart for you.
Direct them so they may continue to do your will.
Give me boldness to see them also as gifts from you.
Allow each style to be consecrated, Lord to you.
May your messages flow as blessings in the lives of all who read.
Amen.
