Six Year Olds Prayer

A SIX YEAR OLDS PRAYER. Dear God do you know who I am. I am possibly your biggest and youngest fan. I am not that old and I’m only six. I know with you anything can be fixed. This year has been hard so my parents have said. Mom and Dad cry cause there is not enough food to be fed. My Dad stresses and says its just not fair. He’s worried so much he is losing his hair. I went to the doctor a lot this year . Mom and Dad said there is no need to fear. The doctor tells them it’s the worst they have ever seen. He said it was cancer, God what does that mean. Does that mean I have been bad or done something wrong. Does it hurt god, if so for how long. They give me treatment and lots of people pray. I get lots of hugs from people that don’t know what to say. Mom says that you have my lost hair. I know why ,its cause your making me the softest and the best teddy bear. Here it is Christmas time once again. We opened our gifts and everyone cried when they saw my cheesy grin. God I know you are not Santa but can I ask you for a gift from you. Its just a small thing I would like from you. Can you give my parents strength when you call my name. Cause I know their life will be different and never the same. It’s the only gift I want and nothing else. Please God remember its for my parents and not for myself. I’m really tired God sorry I have to go. I love you God I am thankful that you already know. So I will say goodnight and I will talk to you again. And most of all thanks for everything God. Love you forever. AMEN.
