A Blogger’s Prayer

Lord, I thank you for my blog, and allowing me to write

So that I may bless others as I walk by faith not sight.

I only ask that as I do so, my focus would not be

To gain a multitude of followers, but just to follow Thee.

May my delight not be in each person who subscribes

But as my heart submits to you, seek an eternal prize.

I pray the platform grown would please the audience of One

And rather than looking to me each seek, above all, Your Son.

Since the only tribe worth belonging to is the tribe that You lead

I know full well that apart from you nothing can succeed.

Remind me that each link should lead to words tested and true

And that the most crucial link to cultivate is the one I have with you.

While my header may be pretty, fashionable and sweet

You are Head of this site; it’s You whom visitors greet.

Teach me as I compile each post, thinking of another

That the posts I occupy firstly are those of wife and mother.

Although the pages on my blog contain words I want to note

Let me not neglect the pages of the very book you wrote.

As my words are seen and read across the Blogosphere

May my desire be,  above all, to worship you right here.

Amen.

We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us, a sphere that also includes you.

2 Corinthians 10:13
