Prayer for a brother, and his son...

Txt2me: Yeah just juggling things. Struggling with my son's behaviour .... would be good to catch up soon . Cheers...


Oh God, please give your wisdom to this man,
and cre-a-tiv-i-ty to see new ways,
and means, and plans, devices that he can
employ to help his son to take his place,

that's “what it was you dreamed for him, when he
was being made in secret in his mum”.
You let his Mum & Dad join in and be
his pro-creators, co-creating some

of what he would become, and struggle with,
and eas'ly overcome, along the way,
[along with you, whose help is not a myth.
I'm sure you won't say "No!", to them today.

In fact the scriptures say that if we lack
some wisdom, then we only need to ask
you who made us, and ev'rything in fact.
You're very fit to help with such a task.

And more than that, you'd love to, if we're tru-
ly willing to do fasting from "that fruit"
(technology, we thought would make things new),
and learn to trust in you again, to boot.]

Well, please do help my brother, and the rest,
to know the way to work with you, for him 
- the young man, that he really will be blessed
in growing up, and choosing who will trim

and prune his inclinations, so he'll grow
more useful to the universe where he's
a part, and yet apart, so he will know
as he is known, and loved, not just appeased.

  1. Yes, Father, you're the only one we trust,
    all other ways are useless, yeah, mine too.
    Please, help them in this situation there,
    to see and know solutions that are true.

    And, hopefully out of their victory,
    we can listen and learn some thing new.
    Our difficulties, are not all the same,
    but, if we let you, you will not bring shame.
