Just a simple prayer I think we have all prayed. God Bless

 Help Me Understand

 
Help me understand Lord why
things happen the way they do,
there are those who lie, steal and cheat
and those who tell the truth.
I've tried to live my life making
you proud of me,
seeking your acceptance 
guidance and possibilities.
You've chosen me for a reason
I trust you'll light the way,
encouraging me to forgive
those who have hurt me today.
I cannot change a thing in life I know
you're in control,
the ruler of this universe the
one who owns my soul.
Tonight I ask you give me strength
to change the things I can,
and what I cannot fix
help me understand.

The Lord will answer your prayer. In the meantime, you are so right, you can make small changes in the world around you that will make life better but this big world won't change over night. A visit to orphans, helping out the homeless, serving the poor will brighten up your spirits and help to make you so grateful for all that you have. Have a blessed Thanksgiving filled with His love.

A lovely poem, with a good message to God; hopefully, the Lord will answer quite soon!
