Writer’s Quest


As I sit down with pen and paper today

I pray, O Lord, for the words to say.

Bless my thoughts. May they be directed by You.

Whatever I write, may it be uplifting and true

To Your Word, to Your Character, to Your Spirit, I pray.


May the words I write challenge the reader to praise

Your Name above all Names with hands upraised.

Whether it’s a poem, prose, or a song

Or a love story like the Song of Solomon,

Help me convey Your love in glorious ways.


May the story of your grace and mercy cause reflection.

I pray as I write your Spirit gives direction.

No matter the story

I’ll give You the glory

For You alone are the Author of perfection.

And all the writers here say a heartfelt "Amen!" What a perfect last line. Lovely from start to finish Donna.
