Humbly Kneel On Your Floor

Dear Lord

I come knocking at your unlocked door
  bend my knees, humbly kneel on your floor
    mercy for time spent on earth I ask
      for the sins and still unfinished task.

You have blessed me with nature's beauty,
  youth, family , and blissful duty
    and I wouldn't change any Your blessings
      just wish I would had heed your callings.

Eve, you are singing what I privately think all the time " just wish I would had heed your callings." This is often my silent song.

The good book says that if a body sins all its life and then at the very last moment sincerely repents and calls upon our Lord God to forgive...the call shall be answered. To all those who say that God does not exist I say this: what caused the first spark, what set the Heavens into motion? The whole of life itself is nothing less than a complete and utter miracle. Nicely espoused, Eve...very nicely espoused. All my very best regards as always! :) john
