I started to build a sandwich
With all the fixings I had
But without the bread on either side
My sandwich looked quite sad
But when I put one slice of bread
Beneath my stack of food
Then another one on top
It didn’t look so skewed
So it is with trusting prayer
I start with seeking God
Then ask Him for my present need
And end with praise and laud
This kind of prayer excites my heart
I hardly see my needs
For God surrounds them with His love--
His grace my fear exceeds
Based on Matthew 6:9-13
If I hold onto God and let Him control the issues of life,
there really is nothing to fear.
