  • This piece, "Dirty Prayers" from poet Michael Nelder closed out #RHETORIC2018. The piece was so moving, as he delicately shared the confessions of his prayer life with the audience. This piece is a suggestion to critically think about the prayers we pray on an individual level and what they say about our hearts. It is a beautiful examination of how gratitude can inform our prayers.
    He wanted to challenge the notion that prayer is just about asking God for things, as well as encourage hearers to think about who we are in the context of American society and our privilege that allows us to pray for certain things other people don't have the privilege of thinking about.

    Lord I repent for all my materialistic prayers. Let your perfect Will be done in my life. I thank you for your Grace and tender mercies. We all sin and fall short of your glory but your kindness leads me to repentance. Praise be to God the father of our Lord Jesus Christ..

    Identity crisis of the gospel ragamuffin...
    For so long now, from so deep within, I find inside myself a crisis from which I almost feel disabled...debilitation seems a solid fit for the state in which I find myself on so many the occasion as I search so deep within to see what God established as I seek Him out in His decrees, because He speaks over me the things that my flesh contradicts so often but why so fiercely?
    Over so many years in my life I endured the abuses so heavy which wrecked a tortured child unwanted, unknowing of a thing called worth as I was written out as a statistic by a system unwanting, long before the term lost cause truly applied, a wasted youth in the making ignorant that the term wasted need not apply...you reap within a child that which is sewn, so when you sow such words as worthless and wasted, what can one expect to bloom but a worthless and wasted youngster with not a chance but to fail because failure is stitched within the essence of his being by those who could've spoken life to sprinkle rain rather than urine for growth...not a man woman nor child can fathom the solitude of being singled out in gross neglect, or the feelings of self hatred one comes into when they only know ugly from those who should be loving...it brings the shackles of a bastard, unwanted and unloved so what can a cat do but that which He was taught...
    Its so crazy because at the absolute depths of insanity and pain brought on by a life of being both the abused and abuser in the same breath, it would seem that God had a plan to use me so He gave me what I needed in my life to walk out the steps of one who would be uplifted by His Word, in His will, in the might of His Holy Spirit...imagine something so incredibly foolish such as myself being used by the most High to make a statement as He placed my pen in my hand and He spoke over my life, "Bastard child of babylon, sing your song..."
    Even before I saw salvation He started sewing words of life into my spirit which translated to my soul that to that point what I had been living for so long was a lie...you mean to tell me that through the thirty some years leading up to my first interactions with God, all the hatred and pain and lack of worth was all fraudulent and what so many spoke into my being need not apply and that I DO have a worth declared over me? It is so deeply saddening to me because as God speaks life so deeply and delicately into the very essence of my being, the scars from the past hatred I endured which made me a bastard stand in a raised position from my flesh and every hurt endured carves my skin in a marred and bloody mess...I am an adopted and loved son of God in Jesus name and that I see now, but I often feel like that recognition gets dumbed down by such deep doubts of worth which cause deepest distress in understanding and recognition of the truth of Jesus and heaven and hell...the idea of my going to hell for a lack of worth often outweighs the truth that I'm going to be with my Daddy in heaven when I pass and it makes me want so badly to cry a steady river of liquid emotion to cut a wake on my heart of hearts, in tears of lack of worth but when they come to breach the flesh of my eye, I feel God reach forward as He wipes the emotion from my eyes to clear my vision so I can once again see as He would have me see so what can I say?
    For so long no words found, formulate in my mind to describe this awful and gorgeous process in which I find myself until recently, and I can't help but to be done with this identity crisis...God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob I pour my self and heart and soul and spirit out before your throne of grace in Jesus name as I confess that which you gave me words to explain...I confess my doubt and the cling which remains from a life as a kid that I once was, as created by those who deemed me a bastard, because I recognize that the term bastard need not apply as You are my Daddy and I'm sorry for falling for the doubt which would tell me that what You said wasn't true...I love You so deeply heavenly Father and I pray aloud before Your eyes and ears as I ask that You'd allow me lessons in worth as You'd have me understand in Jesus name I pray amen...(Tst5)

    💞 Let Us Pray: God I ask You in Jesus' name bless the writer of this prayer, Michael Nelder, and myself with the love, desire, strength, wisdom, and the spirit of obedience to always obey Your Word and will for our lives; and live our lives for Your glory, approval, and applause. Let every desire we have line up to the purpose You created each of us for. Bless each of us to have, and always seek to have an ever-growing-closer-stronger-intimate-relationship with You. Bless us all to have a God solution-focused heart, mind, spirit, and attitude. Give each of us a praying spirit. Bless us to always pray and never faint or worry. Bless us to walk in the peace, security, and wisdom of the books of Proverbs and Psalms. Bless us to always keep our focus on You, walk by faith, trust You, believe Your Word, and trust in Your love for us. God honor Isaiah 54:17, Jeremiah 20:11, 3 John 2, and Psalm 91 over each of our lives. God cover us in the prayers of the righteous. Encamp Your angels all around us and give them charge over us to protect and keep us safe from all sicknesses, viruses, evil, accidents, hurt, harm, danger, the plans of our enemies, and the plans of the enemy of our souls. God forever honor this prayer over each of our lives. Thank You Jesus. Amen, so be it by faith, and by faith, it is so.
    Please read, listen to, and meditate upon the books of Psalms and Proverbs. Let these two books live within your heart and mind so that the Words of these books will help you walk in the peace, wisdom, and security of God’s Love and Word.
