TOO BUSY TO PRAY

I got up early one morning and rushed right into the day!

I had so much to accomplish that I didn’t take 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 me, “But you didn’t seek.”

I tried to come into God’s presence; I used all my keys at the lock.

God gently and lovingly chided, “Why, 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.

“Tomorrow I plan to work, work, from early until late. In fact I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer.” -  Martin Luther.

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” – Lord Jesus (Mat 7:7 KJV)
