Prayer for Flexibility

"Often we walk our own way;

'I know where I'm going,' we say.

We know that You have a plan,

Yet our lives we stake in sand

And because of this, we break.

With Your hand, You always lead

Through the trials, You plant Your seed,

And unless we see our need

And You tender voice we heed,

We will only ever break.

If we yield to Your commands

And forsake our own demands,

Trust Your guidance, take Your hand,

Always trusting in Your plan;

Even in pain or heartache,

We may bend but never break."

Amen.
