Dear God…

On November 23, 2011 By Baydreamer - Lauren ScottIn Faith

I thank You for every day

Each day is a new breath taken

If, at times, my voice is not heard

Please don’t feel forsaken

You are not forgotten

You’re in my daily prayers

Moments I should lean on You

The One who resides upstairs

It’s effortless in this “busy-ness”

To become extremely diverted

To pointless things needing my focus

And leaving You deserted

Still, I thank You for guiding me,

Shining light on my journey’s way

And while I may question the path

From You I will never stray

Amen

I never worry about actually saying my prayers because I know God knows what’s in my heart, and if I forget he still knows when I’m thankful.
