A Message To the Father

Everyday I wake up I pray for my
life as well as others. I thank God
for all his blessings, protection,
and the love from my mother.
Where will I be Lord without your
healing, mercy, and forgiveness?
Is there really life after death
Lord? If so, I'm ready, I'm finish!
My failures out-weighs my success.
When I gave up I continued to strive.
Continuing brought pain unto others, 
I understand why know one wants
me in there lives.
I have no excuses, only regrets because
I made the decisions that became mistakes.
The most important was not believing in
you when you forgave. I Lost the faith.
I'm still alive father, only because
of your will and your purpose.
You shall seek with the whole heart 
and thou shall find. I can see clearly now.
I've recovered from being blind.

Sincerely Brandon !
