Dear God, I have a prayer today Dear God, I have a prayer today. Please Lord, do not let me go astray. Teach me to share your love with others. Give me peace to spread to my sisters and brothers. Dear God, I have a prayer today. Make me better than I was yesterday. Show me how to give you the time you need, Lord, without the constant plead. Dear God, I have a prayer today. Forgive me for my sins, I pray, Even the ones I contemplate. Cover me with your love and grace Until I see your loving face. By Vivian Rogers RECENT POEM OF THE DAY POSTS
I thank God I'm alive
Psychosis
A sadness in my soul
Silence
Those who love us most betray us the worst
Best Blessings
