No Time To Pray So many times I hear people say We are so busy, And have no time to pray. Yet there we are sitting In front of the screen, Texting or playing, - You know what I mean. Why is it so hard To set aside time, To find solitude And pray for a sign? Why do we struggle With boredom each day? Yet, not bother taking Ten minutes to pray? So many hours Are wasted each week, When we could be praying For the answers we seek. So lets make a plan At the start of each day, To make time for God And in that time pray. By Angela Harvey Pitcher RECENT POEM OF THE DAY POSTS

Teach Me, Lord
The Curse Of Social Media

This Brand New Day
Still, I Rise
Lord, I pray each and every day
