The life that was given to me is not my own.
It belongs to my Heavenly Father.
Each day of my existence, time slowly passes by.
Not knowing what the day may bring forth, I trust in the Lord.
The word of God says in Psalms 30:5:
“For his anger endureth but for a moment; in his favor is life: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”
Lord, I receive the joy that is granted to me this day.
Lord, I thank you for your presence in my life.
You are a merciful God.
There is no other love greater than yours.
Heavenly Father, you’re the breath of my life and the joy of my heart.
A song of mercifulness belongs to you.
Who am I?
I am a child of the Risen Savior who sits on the throne of righteousness.
Lord, as I speak these words order my footsteps, and direct my path to righteousness.
The Holy Spirit lives in me and gives me endurance to help others who are in need.
Give me bountiful favor beyond measure, of love, humbleness, strength, wisdom, and forgiveness.
To the Highest Court that art in Heaven, I plead my petition in prayer.
Matthew: 7–8 says,
“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”
Heavenly Father, I thank you for receiving my prayer and forgiving me of my sins.
Since you have restored me with favor, my life is complete within your presence.
Lord, when I depend on your guidance and not humanity, all things begin to manifest in my life.
When I knock on your door, the door is always opened.
To whoever reads these words, may you find yourself knocking on a Heavenly door.

You wrote "The Life that Was Given To Me" in 2009 but the prayer poem is timeless. My favorite part is,
"Lord, when I depend on your guidance and not humanity, all things begin to manifest in my life."
Well done!
Peace be with you,
John Michael Domino
Thank you!
