Prayer
A lot of times I don’t have the words to express what I’m feeling.
Often I don’t have the words to express my prayers.
So sometimes I pray through tears.
And at times I pray through silence.
Many times I pray through photography, allowing my pictures to express my prayers.
I’d like to share some of those prayers.
The captions are just part of the prayers that I am trying to express through them.
Will you pray with me.
Lord,
You’re removing things and refining me. Continue to remove but let me know that you are there.
Hold her. Bring her back in here. Show us where there is hope and healing.
You always embrace us with your grace and you give us your promise of hope. And for that, I say thank you.
In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Amen and Amen
