Reverence

Prayer comes slowly tonight.

I have no words for the Almighty, but his own:
“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name”
… then silence …

His wordless presence permeates my soul
… the stillness is full of Him.

Minutes pass with no words, no conclusion
… no amen.

Only unanswered questions remain
as His holy embrace assails consciousness
… grace evident in sleep

Reverently, I snore “amen!”
