A prayer

By Perla Semaan

I don’t always grab a pen to write about you nor bend my knees to pray, but today God, you are all I’m talking about. All I’m asking, dear God, is that you strengthen my faith and erase my doubt. You are all I need to face the darkest of the nights. You taught me how to appreciate the good things just like the bad things that come along my way. You taught me how to trust your plan and never to worry. Dear God, be the light guiding me towards the comfort of your arms. Be my savior. And I promise to be forever faithful to you, and to look for you in every face, in every situation, and in every crowded place, so I can find your wisdom and feel your touch. Thank you God for the blessings you gave me and for showing me that I’m not alone. You are always with me, and I’m forever loyal to your love.
