A few months ago, I decided to submit an excerpt from my unpublished book, Nathan: A Heart, A Storm, A Prayer, to the Gulf Coast Writers Association’s annual writing contest, “Let’s Write!” I’ve never entered a writing contest before, so I had it in my mind that I would be thrilled to place.
Well, guess what! [...]
Nathan’s Prayer
I love you, Lord.
Create in me
A heart that beats
A song for Thee.
Tho’ life is sweet
And love is mine,
I know my soul
Is wholly Thine.
If I may play
In grass and sand,
There will be time
To hold Your Hand.
So, Jesus, please
Create in me
A heart that beats
A song for Thee.
