My Neighbour's Pantry

Here I am Lord
Its me again
Knocking on your back door
I'm short a few things today

Know you've got some extra
I'm trying to make
Something out of this day
Coming up a little shy

Have you got a cup of Charity
Perchance a pound of Love
A few bits of faith would help
finding Hope is in short supply

I've got the other stuff I need
Could use your help this day Lord
Can't seem to get it done alone
You always have enough to spare

A simple,but powerful prayer.

The last ten years or so I've gotten to where it seemed wrong to pray for myself, somehow unworthy to ask for something when I have so much and many so little. But this prayer not only seems worthy but necessary. Thank you for letting me borrow from your own pantry.

Not easy to be charming and pious all at once, but this write does it for me!
