Poem
Dear Heavenly Father, Because I know you, I know true love. A love I didn't deserve. Yet you saw fit to make me a mother of the most beautiful little girl. You loved me enough to give me a second chance at life And you didn't judge me for being a single mother before I was a wife I know I did things out of order but you make no mistakes And I believe my footsteps are ordered even when they are hard to take You gave the life of your precious son for the pardon of my sins So I pray one day I'll meet you at the gates of Heaven and you'll gladly let me in Father please hear this sinner's prayer as I seek your direction And please continue loving me in spite of my many imperfections Please see me for who I truly am, a woman in search of your grace. Allow me to know you deeply, to know you truly, to be worthy of seeing your face I will never be able to repay you for the life of your son But I long daily just to make you proud and for the day I hear you say," Well done." You blessed me with the gift of writing poetry but sometimes I'm at a loss for words Because sometimes I can't find words to express the depth of my hurt In those moments of weakness, the times when I feel like just giving up I look at the face of my daughter and know there is no greater love. Any time I needed anything in my moments of complete despair In my darkest hour every time you are there Thank you father for all you do, blessings I can't explain Moments of true happiness, sunshine after the rain Thank you father for mending broken hearts and for carrying burdens no one else could bear For loving me unconditionally and for answering a sinner's prayer
