Prayer Is Not, Prayer Is

PRAYER?  God hears what you’re saying;
He already knows what you need,
But putting it in words is good for you.
Read about prayer in the Bible
As Jesus’ example you heed;
You want to do what is true.

Faith Is Not, Faith Is

Faith is not a childish thing,
Enfolding us like a blanket, familiar and old;
Not a pleasant memory from the past.
God wants us to be believers, resolute and bold.

Hope Is Not, Hope Is

Hope is not a lazy thing
That waits to see what comes;
Hope seizes the plow and starts it now
And knows where strength is from.
