I told you from the beginning...
If you touch me,
You'll hurt me.
You heard me,
So you laid your hands on me to pray

God,
Help me believe You're using this brokenness in me for a reason.
Help me see Your good ways and plans for my life.
Father,
You see my pain, it feels too much to bear many days.
It feels like an endless cycle, fighting it feels so hard.
Help me have hope in You.
Help me see myself more the way You see me, Lord.
Creator,
I know You created me with amazing creativity and with good gifts.
Help me to honor that and see that more than the way I currently am seeing myself.

They stand like folding memories,
rising to bid the conscious farewell.
in this illusive state she ponders,
praying for the retention of a familiar.
sigh.
each exhale releases an ache,
for its return is unclear.
holding onto a thread she walks,
following a trial of fear and wishes;
together. it's a promise.

His vision in sight
He gathers his strength to fight
Praying he will win

Thank you, Father, that I have a purpose
one that runs deeper than the surface
Thank you, Lord, for cleansing me
from all of my inequities, you have set me free
My burden is gone, my eyes have been opened
to You, I surrender my utmost devotion
My body is hungry for a touch from Your hand
My spirit is thirsty for Your promised land
I sing praises to Thee with love and with care
to You, my Great Master
This is my prayer.

BELIEVING*

Stick unto God and believe in yourself. *It'd be bright after the dark.* There most be a black *time dark starry night before an open heaven* of a brighter sunny day.

Came a long way searching better day. _Through all agonies, never give up the pain,_ only doubts obstructs the gain.
Acquiring a dream is sowing a maize 🌽 *nurturing it cares about it,* **** it from negative vibes.
And protect it from enemy's pest, control it with some fervent prayer, hit not the player play the game.
A faithful mind makes wishes come true.

My mother gave me a dowry
a brimming chest of treasures
a heart of rare and precious gems
she collected long ago

She filled it with her words, her thoughts
and things she knew I'd need
she piled high with hopes and dreams
priceless trinkets all for me
and topped it off with years of love
and a life of merry traditions

Then knowing that I'd need a map
by which to guide my life
she gave to me a legacy
my Bible, pure and right
and taught to me the art of prayer
a rare and genuine gift she shared

I am blessed to be a mother now
with a daughter of my own
and I can't wait to share with her
the love that I have known

A Prayer

Blessings to our almighty God on high
Gather our faith as it falls from the sky
Guide us forever from the fires of Hell
Breaking the notorious devil's evil spell
In blessed glory may God always reign
And we live in sacred peace once again
God lift us from the places that we fall
Let us hear your Heavenly angels call

Chorus:Take our hearts to where angels fly
God don't let your sweet love ever die

Lift our spirits within glorious release
Bringing home your everlasting peace
We are now living in times of Holy sin
Open our hearts and let god within
Why don't we say a Heavenly prayer
By the gates of Heaven God be there
From the wings of faith and desire
God be our one and only Holy fire

Chorus:Take our hearts to where angels fly
God don't let your sweet love ever die

From a garden now filled with thorns
A new and lasting hope will be born
Allow God to enter you heart and soul
Bless you in golden heart of pure gold
Let God's love forever come to stay
Bringing hope to every night and day

Chorus: Take our hearts to where angels fly
God don't let your sweet love ever die
