My Morning Task

Every day, I wake up to pray; To God, to guide my way: I do this every morning, Like, over the night, I got a warning. I talk to him like I do with my father, And this grows our relationship farther. This is the sole source of my peace; For every smile and confidence, every piece; You may not agree with me unless you give it a try, And when it seems not to work out, it is not wrong to retry. I was taught, when I was still a child, To tell it to Jesus even when the pain is mild; One day, at church, pastor said that it does not hurt to ask, So, I pray at dawn, during the day and even at dusk. For the heavenly goodies, I never stop to search, And when it is my turn to receive, I get much. I am not one of these angels of the dark that to you, I should deceive; So, I guess, today, you have learned more reasons to believe.
