I Will Understand

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." -Benjamin Franklin ______________________________________________________________
Lord, You know I’m a simple man. Tell, I'll remember, if I can. Guide me as You want me to be. Dear Lord, please have mercy on me. Involve me, I will understand. I’ll reach out with a helping hand. If I’m tempted, deliver me. Dear Lord, please have mercy on me. Lord God, please take all that I am, Guide me to be a better man. Help me to go respectfully. Dear Lord, please have mercy on me. I will treat all with humility. Dear Lord, please have mercy on me.

My darling, you did well. This is a beautiful sonnet. I am so proud of you. There were tears in my eyes when I first read it. If only they knew the struggles you have to produce something as wonderful as this.
