All through life I've prayed and prayed
Yet from God I have strayed
Praying to find my Mr right
Then praying for a way to end a fight
Always looking in the wrong places
Going by the looks of their faces
Never Looking at whats inside
I deserve those tears that I cried
For God loves me for who I am
I am also one of his lost lambs
Knowing if I ask I shall recieve
But what I asked to myself was decieved
Why should God save something he knows is wrong
Just because there is where I think I belong
God already knows my final landing
And my life he is expanding
Now that I am almost 40 I look back
Through this journey to get my life on track
All those prayers I thought God didnt hear
I just didnt see it went straight to his ear
He took them all and made me see
Who this is that I call me

Lisa, this had so much in it that was so good. Another really excellent piece. I'm so excited seeing this development in your writing over this last week. It was all good, but there were some absolutely stand out lines. The last four lines in particular were excellent. You brought it to such a beautiful place of understanding God's loving grace. Again Lisa, well done! With love, Deb
