I Do Need You So Lord

I am but only a human being a women who needs material things although I am materially blessed I still need you Lord to give me rest I try to take one day at a time but at times this life weighs me down and when I feel that I can't do this alone that's when I pick up my imaginary phone And place a prayer call to you my Heavenly Father who knows how to get my life back in order your there to listen to me 24/7 never too busy in your place of Heaven You've known me ever since I was formed in my Mother's womb before I was born you know my past and my future know how to heal all my sutures At times my carnal mind has forgotten you but you've never forgotten me tis true I know who to call on when I feel blue you keep me together like spiritual glue I know you work in mysterious ways to help me get through my earthly days small and big blessings you send to me sometimes I admit am too blind to see This present world may be falling apart with all the devil's arrows, slings and darts but I know Lord you'll be with me to the end helping me through life's dark tunnels and bends. 2-10-17

Every mortal can identify with this deeply thought-provoking poem. It addresses the human condition with telling force. We've all "been there," and you describe it with compelling, eloquent power. Thank you, Cheryl. Hugs, always, Paul

Hi Cheryl, You've penned such a good "down to earth " write to God. I enjoyed it from start to finish. I could relate to most of your lines. If this is for the contest, I think you have penned yourself a winner:-) Alexis
