Daring To Pray

Rating: 5.0


I am not even a worm
not even an ant
not even a mustard seed.

But I do dare to seek you,
do I dare to pray to you.

This daring you give me
all the day long and in the night.

wow! what a great poem. You have captured and depicted in a few words the incredible paradox of God inviting fallen humans to come into His presence through prayer!

I am not even a worm not even an ant not even a mustard seed. Hi Tony, it is really true. We are nothing in frond of the Lord. You are fully aware of yourself.

Daring to seek God gives Him praise. It is a good way to find Him and open your heart to Him. Your poem is simple yet profound, it opened the doors and allowed me to think of humanity and how He is always being shut out by people who close their hearts and minds. It formed a sadness of sorts in me for those who can't or won't pray. Your poem brings curiosity and light into life. I like it. Well done. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
