Prayer of My Heart by Esther Marie

Created in God’s image, I am a reflection of Him. 

I am so much more than a flower in the wind. 

Clothed in righteousness and everlasting life, 

I am rooted deeply in the love of Christ. 

But when I am overwhelmed by the ocean’s tide, 

He is my surest peace and guide. 

And when I think I can no longer stand, 

He lifts me up by His right hand. 

This is Your promise, Lord, to me, 

Where Your Spirit is, I am free. 

So let this prayer of my heart be true, 

May I ever only live for You. 

May I live in victory and walk in grace, 

Filled with hope and Your great faith. 

May I move the mountains standing in my way

As I love your heart more every day. 

May I be the light glorifying You Name.

This is the prayer my life will proclaim.

My name is Esther Gonzales, I am a poet, writer, journalist, and Sunday school teacher from New Jersey. I have always loved writing ever since I can remember. I believe everyone has a story to tell and if we look close enough, we see God's love and grace woven throughout each of our lives. Through my writing, I hope to give others a glimpse of who God is by sharing all the ways He has been there for me.
