What Do I Do? a Letter To Jesus

What do I do? A letter to Jesus What do I do? I'm always looking for the right answers and can't seem to find them. I turn to My Lord to answer my prayer and yet they go unanswered. Is it me? I know I'm kind hearted; I always try to help when I can. I've held my family together. My Lord has promised me an abundance life, but he timing is different from mine. I feel that I have wasted so much of my life doing nothing, but how do I change that? I pray for My Lord to help me, to show me what must come next. I have great people placed in my life, but how do I utilize them? How do I put the pieces together to fit perfect? What is it that he is trying to show me or teach me and why can't I see it? I'm so desperate to find my purposes in this life. To find where I belong! I know I'm more than a mother, a sister, a friend and a worker. But what more am I? Who am I with out these things or people, who am I? I am a poet, I am an artist, and I am a writer! But who will know these things about me after I am gone. Who will feel my pain, my joy and my love for life? Who remember me after I am gone? Will anything that I have done in my life matter to anyone? My Lord shows me all the beauty of life with all the colors in sky, the pictures on a wall, even in a great movie. For me to see it and recognize as a thing of beauty is a blessing. To hear the voice of my children and grandchildren, to hear the ocean or a great band playing a song that is a blessing. To taste great food and smell the sweetest things in life that is a blessing. My Lord has give all of these blessing to me, to do with what I see fit. And yet I'm here complaining about the things I do not have. I have let you down My Lord and I'm truly sorry. Please forgive me, forgive my weak mind, and forgive my despair. I want to thank you for eveything good in my life, thank you for my life.

For you are a holy people, who belong to the Lord your God. Of all the people on earth, the Lord your God has chosen you to be his own special treasure. mathew 6 verse 19, 20 and 21 Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be. Amen.
