Dear Jesus



Dear Jesus,
Thank you for today,yesterday,and tomorrow.
 For my family, joys, and my sorrows.
For all that has made me stronger.
And for letting me see another tomorrow.
For my struggles, and what you will show.
For the little things in life that mean the most.
For being at "my party" and always being the host.
For never giving up on me, and always staying close.
For calling me friend and extending your hand.
For holding me up when i couldn't stand.
For being the lead singer in "my band"
For giving me all of this land.
For the earth, waters, abd the sand.
For all the times i didn't understand.
For things you give and don't demand.
For my life that you have intricately planned.
For what you do for me everyday.
For when i cant find the words to say.
For all the times i felt like running away.
For the times when you tell me "stay".
For the amazing truth that you've made a way.
For saving me all the times Im lost.
For saving a world that is lost.
For dying on that old rugged cross!!!
 

      Thank you Lord Jesus and Father God, for you have blessed me with everything i need. Your grace is sufficient for me. Help me to live in that and spread it to the lost world around me. May you work in my life and the lives around me so we can all live in peaceful harmony praising you, our king! Thank you Lord! Amen!
