I ask God to help me When I can’t seem to pray The sorrows are all around me I just don’t know what to say I ask God to show me When I can’t find the way Darkness compels me To seek out the light of day I ask God to guide me When I’m lonely and afraid Fear is like a monster To discourage and dissuade I ask God to relieve me When I’m feeling so much pain Heartaches are distressing There seems to be nothing but rain I ask God to accept me When I’m unworthy of His mercy Forgiveness is my yearning Worries bring so much controversy I ask God to protect me When I’m restless and uneasy Troubled by the darkest dread Repulsed so I’m feeling queasy I ask God to never leave me When I’m not sure what to expect Discouragement is all around Reminding my heart of its defect I ask God to always love me When I feel so unlovable, so forlorn Like I can’t make it here In a world where I cry and mourn I ask God to answer my prayers When I need grace to survive The tests of life, the darkest times So that I can live and thrive I ask God to always abide When I can’t see the light Shadows of despair surround me Raining down like the dark night I ask God to fill me When I need love so alive That I will always give away Love that will delight, revive I ask God for His Son When I knew He was the only One Who could truly make a way To hear the words, “Well done!” July 30, 2022

A beautiful write/picture. Your pen was writing overtime on this wonderful write. I FAV it. I have asked God for the same things as you have and He has always asked. Have a fun/great/blessed day writing away.............
