but sometimes prayer is stronger when its images are simple...)
Put a sticker on the windshield of my soul, Lord,
to remind me when my prayer life needs a tune-up
- and I'm thinking I might need one pretty soon...
My filter needs a cleaning,
screening out what's clogging up
what fuels the engine of my being...
My prayer life won't turn over, it misfires
- and a Spirit-charged ignition
is the spark I need to rev me up again...
My timing belt is worn and fails
to sync my needs with time to pray
and to manage my combustion...
I need a fluid faith for steering through hard times
and for braking when I need to stop
and think again - and yet again...
I need the holy oil of grace
to keep me running smooth and clean
in every thought and word and deed...
Put a sticker on the windshield of my soul, Lord,
to remind me when my prayer life needs a tune-up
-- and I'm thinking I might need one pretty soon...
Amen.
