Praying is resting for the soul,
That God teaches me this early morning,
When my body whines for taking a break,
But God gives me strength to wake up.
Praying with a dear sister,
Who is God’s helper,
To quench my thirst again.
By His living water of the Holy Spirit,
He consoles me to persevere in praying,
Seeing God’s wonders accomplished beyond my planning.
As long as I abide in Him,
His grace and wisdom flow into me and out of me,
Even in the midst of a dark valley.
His mercy always rules,
And faithfully leads me,
Along with my beloveds ones
Through and through,
Until soaring on His mighty wing.
(Psalm 143:6)
