I prayed to God the other day... intent on something new...
Please send a poem on its way... with insights I can view...
I waited for an hour still... yet nothing came along...
No writing prompt to fit the bill... for poem, hymn or song...
I puzzled why I had to wait... I'm not a patient soul...
What made the Lord God hesitate? I prayed for self-control...
Another hour still I stayed... determined to a fault...
Not knowing why the Lord delayed... to bring things to a halt...
And so I asked Him to explain... Tell me the reason, please...
I felt Him tap me on the brain... my focus to increase...
A sudden tingle made me pause... because the Lord was near...
The answer to my prayer, of course... He came to make things clear...
I heard an inner voice that said... Show Me your faith again!
If you want to be Spirit-led... at least first find a pen!
Once found, pour out the words within... as wisdom grants insight!
With pen in hand, you can begin... to write with all your might!
Denis Martindale September 2019.
