Time to Pray I got up early one morning and rushed right into the day I had so much to accomplish that I didn\'t take time to pray Problems just tumbled about me and heavier came each task Why doesn\'t God help me? I wondered He answered, \"You didn\'t ask\" I wanted to see joy and beauty, but the day toiled on gray and bleak. I wondered why God didn\'t show me He said, \"But you didn\'t seek\" I tried to come into God\'s presence I used all my keys at the lock God gently and lovingly chided \"My child, you didn\'t knock\". I woke up this morning and paused before entering the day I had so much to accomplish That I had to take time to pray. ~G. Herold
