Prayer Changes Everything - Re-posted

I raised a prayer that bitterness

Would find a brighter view
I raised a prayer that all would see
That truth has real value
I raised a prayer for peaceful thoughts
When anger touched a heart
I raised a prayer that foolish words
Would stop with wisdom’s start
I raised a prayer that all the pain
Would heal without a scar
I raised a prayer that each lost soul
Would find out who they are.
I raised a prayer that all that’s wrong
Would soon be set to right.
I raised a prayer that those who hate
Learn love’s powerful might
I raised a prayer that you would change
The things that should not be….

And it was then I realized

Praying had just changed me.
