Heavenly Father...

Heavenly Father...As I kneel before you, please forgive me.
     You know what I've been through, and I know I'm not worthy.

Heavenly Father...Cleanse me of my sin, for I am spiritually dying.
     It's my human nature not to be perfect in this skin, but I keep trying!

Heavenly Father...Comfort me with your Holy Spirit, and have your Son save my heart.
     My carnal mind at times ain't trying to hear it, and I could tear me apart!

Heavenly Father...Save my soul, and just take control of my life.
     Oh God pull me from this dark hole, for these emotional scars cut like a knife.

Heavenly Father...I give myself totally, surrendering to your will.
     I want to be with you for eternity, and run free through meadows of daffodil.....

This is heartfelt and I'm sure that He's heard your prayer and forgiven you, JAM. When you told me you were writing this, I thought it would take a while, but this is precise and straight from within. Much love, Audrey
