Child of God

Lord, do You remember me? I once sat upon your knee. You were my Father, I, your child in your presence small and mild. You carried me when I felt faint. You suffered for me without complaint. You forgave me for my transgressions and led me down the path of your direction. Lord, do You remember me? I search for You on bended knee. With head bowed low, I humbly pray, Lord, please fill me with your love today. I’ll take the time to converse with You and listen as your voice rings through. I know You’ve never gone away. It was I who fell and went astray.

Sweet Rhonda, He is always with us. Sometimes we feel abandoned, but we're not forgotten, just forgiven for our sins. I'm adding this poem and you to my favorites. Excellence speaks for itself! Love, Carolyn

A beautiful prayer, Rhonda. The last two lines are so true. God never moves away from us, it's us who move away from Him. God Bless. Love, Kim
