Adoration

Good morning Lord, bless me today and everyday of my life.
To be with you, does not mean, to be without strife.

Yet, I can remain faithful to you and pray.
I can remain calm, and in your presence stay.

Allow me Lord, under the wing of your protection,
to wallow in your affection.

Keep me Lord, under the watchful eye of your angles, I pray.
Don’t let me in any way stray.

Over-thinking leads to despair.
Remind me Lord that’s an error.

I refuse to have a thinking party today.
Allow me, from this conviction not to sway.

Thinking, thinking, thinking……
Thinking myself all the way to fear and apprehension.

Today Lord, instead of thinking, I will give you adoration.
