The Difference

I don’t know where this came from – it says Author Unknown – but I love it:

The Difference

I got up early one morning
and rushed right into the day.
I had so much to accomplish
that I didn’t have time to pray,

Problems just tumbled about me
and heavier came each task
Why doesn’t God help me?
He answered, “You didn’t ask.”

I tried to come into God’s presence
I used all my keys at the lock
God gently and lovingly chided,
“My Child, you didn’t knock.”

I woke up early this morning
and paused before entering the day
I had so much to accomplish
That I had to take time to pray.
