There are times we forget what to pray for
Distracted by suffering and woes
We pray for blessings of good things
And pray for destruction of foes
Micah reminds – God is faithful
As He was, and is, and will be
But that doesn’t mean He has in mind
The same things as you and me
We’re reminded here to have wonder
At the merciful love of our God
That his nature is to offer gracious release
To children who deserve the rod
For we are His Beloved possessions
Invited to live in His peace
(Remember Paul says we shouldn’t purpose
To sin that His grace might increase.)
We Love because He has loved us
And our prayers are heard by Him
We are blessed to remember that under His feet
Are not our enemies, but our sins.
