Prayer revealing

My prayers are not pleas
To change or to heal
As much as they are prayers
That consistently reveal
The splendor that has always been
And will always be— 
That perfect selfhood that reflects
The Father constantly— 
The likeness, like the Father, 
Vibrant, loving, pure, and free!

—Ann E. Hastings
