Brick by Brick

Prayers - Request Prayer

By Sue Bradford Edwards

Brick by Brick

WBrickbyBrick-Prayer
Help me be the wise woman,
the woman who builds her home
brick by brick, memory by memory.
Help me to realize when I am tearing down
these carefully constructed walls
with harsh words or harmful habits.

With Your help,
I can love myself as You love me.
With Your help,
I can look at my mistakes
and then work beyond them.

I can hold my head high.
I can take this self-respect and this strength
and use it as You would,
building, brick by brick.
