Prayer .3

A belief in a higher cause  
is sometimes the only belief 
that remains intact when confusion determines the rule of the day 
and competing voices vie for common agreement. 
But what do we do when there is no agreement? 
Where do we turn when there is no direction? 

An appeal to conscience is our constant. 
It is our one solution. 
It is an ally in the center of turmoil. 
It is an asset when all else fails. 
It is our means to seek clarity when 
        we do not know what to think and 
        we do not know where to turn. 

Love is the constant. 
It is the higher cause 
        and it will endure long after the temporary confusion 
        of the day has passed.
