Dear God as I look out my window <br />after the hard morning rain <br />at the sunshine beginning to peek <br />through a sky of blue. <br />I want to thank you God <br />first for your son Jesus <br />who has shown us a better way, <br />but also a beautiful dawn each day. <br />Dear God I want to thank you <br />for all the good things in my life, <br />all my friends and family <br />of which I hold so dear. <br />Please could you forgive me <br />for my self-indulgent at times <br />when I only think of me? <br />When I ignore the needs of the world <br />and only think of mine. In addition, <br />for my grumbling selfishly <br />that the world is hard on me, <br />when I know full well <br />there are others worse of than me. <br />Dear God I would be more than grateful <br />if you could do these things for me, <br />and let me be a better person <br />that I really am. <br /> <br />Amen<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-sunday-prayer-16/
