Prayer Poem: The Nearness of God

by Cortney Kenow Heerwald
(insta: cortneykenowheerwald)

When I do not know
Just what to do
I remember that I can
Always come to you

For wherever I am
You are not far
If I look deep inside
there you are!

Somehow you know
Just what I need
Your loving presence
So near to me

Emmanuel, God with us,
Is the name upon my lips
And the prayer that I offer
Is in gratitude for this

I feel your peace
As we sit here together
You show me the way
And we walk it together
