Array ( [sid] => 2073 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => This I pray to You my Father in heaven above [time] => 2002-08-09 12:47:22 [hometext] => This poem came straight from my heart and every word of it is true. It's one of my favorite poems I've ever written and I want to share it with all of you. [bodytext] => I finally see that I need to be the best person I can be
because You created me
Thinking about everything You've given me makes me cry because it touches me so much
for You I will try to be all I can be
for You I would die I'd do anything
Because You've given me this precious gift of life
I will not live it in strife
Nothing means more to me than Your love
This I pray to You my Father in heaven above
You are my everything
You are my star shining bright
You take away the darkness from the night
You make me happy and take my breath away
I am so thankful I can't put it into words to say
I know sometimes I sin
and I tell myself I won't ever do it again
somehow someway I always do
but nothing will ever take me away from You
I see life in a brand new way
now all my troubles will just fade away
I will not sin because You my Father You love me
You've shown me in everything You've done for me
Now I see I can do anything and be anyone I wanna be and I choose to bring happiness to everyone and try to make people do the same
and live life out happily and praise Your precious name [comments] => 3 [counter] => 221 [topic] => 11 [informant] => Sweetie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

Amen, my dear, for God our Father is everywhere, and his son Jesus took his blood to make ours fresh and without sin. Although we are only human, sins we do. this was a wonderful, inspiring write. thankyou,
