Dear God

Dear God
No matter what I do,
 I will never be good enough to anyone 
I may give my love to any human,
but none will value me as you God
I may pride myself as the most faithful man,
 but I am alive out of your mercy
I may not satisfy those in my life,
 but your word is filled with love
 feed me on that word every day for my soul salvation 
Many hate me for my success;
 while others jeer and scorn me for a mistake I did once
Lord by your side am saved....
fight my battles for am weak
Christ my Lord you prayed for Peter not to loose faith....
pray for me also so that I may remain in your faith
I got nothing to show,
 but please save me from women and self destruction 
Save me from decisions I make:
just to please my body and others at the expense of pleasing you God Almighty 
I live at the mercy of others,
 for I can’t earn my own living 
Remember me and bless me with a job
Regardless my efforts I have failed every aspect of life
Lord God I place this prayer in your hands
Amen
