The Difference by Arthur George Twill
I got up early one morning and rushed right out into the day:
I had so much to accomplish, that I didn't have time to pray.
Problems, just tumbled about me and heavier came each task,
"Why doesn't God help me," I wondered.
He answered, "You didn't ask."
I wanted to see joy and beauty, but the day toiled on gray and bleak.
I wondered, "Why God didn't show me."
He answered, "You didn't seek."
I tried to come into God's presence, I used all the keys in the lock.
God gently and lovingly chided, "My child you didn't knock."
I woke up early this morning and paused before entering the day:
I had so much to accomplish that I had to take time to pray.
A Blessed Sunday to you my friends.
Isn't wonderful to know Jesus Loves US!!

This is a brilliant poem/prayer. I like it.
Knowing my luck, if I knock on the door it will open outwards and hit me in the face!
God bless you.
Wonderful poem ... and so true! Glad you're feeling better! God bless you!
A wonderful poem! Have a blessed week ahead!
...good advise.
Makes ya think!
We think we found a church here in Meaford that we'll attend, at least for now.
Hello, love the poem. I do think you can pray any time of the day and anywhere!
Happy Monday, enjoy your new week!
So important to find a good church. Hope this is the one for you. : )
I agree!! God tells us in I Thessalonians, To pray without ceasing.
I talk to God a lot throughout the day. : )
Great advice! Happy Monday to you! 😊
I have a plaque in my kitchen which says, ' A day hemmed in prayer never unravels."
So true!
God bless you, this week!
