TO A DESPERADO

 “Ya don't feel loved? Now, love's a basic need, and self-indulgence can't real love replace. Might Be, if You would git from meanness freed, the need for change you're gonna need ta face! What once was best just might no longer be; that just might be a fact ya should accept. Consult the Lord, and maybe then you'll see: some things must be got Rid of, some be kept...” Ask the Lord for wisdom!

LOVING PRAYER FOR THE WORLD

 “This blessedness is certainly enough, but, still, Lord, I could dig a little more! So many folks on Earth are feeling Rough – and All of them, dear Lord, I’m praying for: the starving, sick, and All the greedy ones, the hateful ones... of course, their victims, too… and folks who think the answer’s bombs and guns, plus those who know the only answer’s You. Please, grant that I can do a Whole lot more, and help You give us All the things we Need; but let me not my Own real needs ignore, let being Kind ta All now be my creed! Please, and thank you!”
