In our flesh
we know not what or how
to pray,
But the Spirit
who lives within
takes to His knees
on our behalf,
knowing full well
the will of Him
to whom we
pray.
Honest flesh
knows enough to stand down
when in prayer,
So the Spirit
may freely aid us
in our weakness
with sighs and groans
too deep for words
to convey.
The flesh must lose
so the Spirit may gain.
Not our will,
but God's be done.
We pray not
so much to gain,
But to lose those
that remain
Obstacles to His
holy reign.
Praying is losing
to bring glory
to His name.
Romans 8:26-27
Luke 22:42 |
