Finding Voice



Lord help me find my voice,
the commanding shout from deep within me,
the fire of passion, song and the laughter in my belly.
Help me find my smiling squint and
softly spoken word that has touched my tender love.
Help open my heart that she may forever find comfort there
in my embrace.
Help me push away from my desk and enjoy the
gifts work has provided.
Help me find the stroke in my brush that gives life
and texture to my oils on canvas.
And help my fingers let fly the music wound tightly
in the strings of my guitar.
Help me find peace in a morning run
with a true friend, and the joy of
a well hit ball.
Help my written word express a simple thought
that captures forever a brief moment shared.
And please, Lord, help me find my purpose
and give me strength to live it
and share it fully.

Amen!
