Petition

Dear God,

  You know my thoughts before I think them, you know my needs before I need them, and you know if my heart prays from a state of purity.  I have approached the throne boldly and with confidence, I have beseeched, I have supplicated, I have begged, and I have brought my orison to you that you might give unto me what I ask.  I have tilled the ground where hope springs eternal and I have nurtured my sapling with blood, sweat, tears, milk, honey, and both lamentations and panegyrics.  So I offer my entreaty again to bless me with what I ask.  Thank you in advance.

                                                                  Yours Truly,
                                                                  Human # 61,968,494,703 (Trey)
