Ronnie On the Prayer Bench In the Garden




There is a hallowed place at church where I go to pray.
It is a bench that is; in the garden.
Oftentimes I find myself wanting to be there and pray for my family and myself.
To fight with the evil one and win because Jesus is fighting with me.
I find it desirable to be alone or with someone to pray knowing God is hearing me as I share with Him my needs and the needs of others.
I share this with my brother, cubby, and he feels he is right there too.
Joy permeates my mind and I am at ease of being able to freely pray.
Having used my beads; at Rosary, I take them along with me there.
I find quietness and fulfillment of the greatest sort sitting upon the bench.
This is a bit of Heaven upon the earth to get alone with  God and pray.
Knowing He is able to hear my every word and to answer; in kind.
I go there to sometimes be alone and ponder my life but all in all I find Jesus accompanies me.
So, I am not truly alone for He is there as I desire Him to be.
What a wonderful place this is as it is for everyone who wishes to go.
