I prayed today,
in earthbound syllables, unlike the angelic kind,
mine miraculous as the upper room languages,
for I prayed believing Christ would interpret them right:
as for intent, as for need, although
bundled with emotions wrapped around truths He has shown us.
Lord, how encouraging!
You say pray without ceasing,
because this kind of prayer will go on,
even when other tongues fade.
Your righteousness within us assures
that prevailing in talking to You
avails more than we can ever imagine,
makes your intercession a certainty
in whatever form a prayer closet takes.
