Dear God,
What does prayer look like to You?
Do You see our prayers like a cloud, rising?
Or do petitions position themselves like pinpoints on a map?
Do you hear them or feel them or
Did you already answer before the world began?
Does prayer turn Your heart like a stream of water?
Does it make You turn Your head and notice us?
Do You ever shake your head and decide it’s a no-go because you see the whole picture and it won’t work out best that way?
Do you wish we would understand?
Do prayers collect like sand in an hourglass?
Like rain in a bucket?
Like tears on a pillow?
What does prayer look like to You?

You are so kind, Esther. Do you ever wake up at 2:28 a.m. with thoughts that make you stay up and jot it all down? 🙂 Whether you do or not, I love your honest, heart-gripping, truth-bearing encouraging blog as well!
