Dear Lord,

Through it all-
you held my heart in your hands.
Through my rises and my falls-
you re-taught me how to stand.
Now I'm lovin' every moment
that I get to praise your name-
Lovin' you for who you are-
Lovin' every moment that you keep us sane.
And for a reason as simple as this:
You loved us first, you gave us life.
Returning the love, as strong as we can-
It's only proper, it feels so right.
Lord please give us our daily bread-
it's more than we deserve.
Teach us how to praise your name-
and how to put time on reserve.
Through it all-
You held our lives in your hands.
Let us rise, let us fall-
All according to your plans.

We surrender... AMEN.

Author guidance for This story

Hello once again, This is a Poem written in a prayer style form. I wrote this when I didn't know what to say to God at one point in my life, and remembered that I was better with words on paper rather than with my mouth. I encourage you all to write a prayer to God when you are at a loss for words but mainly just speak to Him from your heart. It doesn't have to rhyme or be fancy what so ever. You could just say "Jesus," or "I Love You Lord." God sees our hearts and our desires and feels our pain, so don't think He's any less than He is. I will try to add more prayer style poems like this under chapters for this one. God Bless, FaithBased.
