To drnick (Free verse) by amanda_dcosta

I do not know you drnick nor know your real name I do not know what you look like or what's your favourite game What you might like to eat or drink or styles you prefer best the languages you know to speak,or to whom you're known as 'pest'. Yet, still I thank our Lord above for His creation true and for the very nature in the one and only you. I ask that He may bless you in all you undertake not judge you on what I might think the habits you should break. I pray that He be with you wherever you may go in every step or act of yours Love's gifts in you may grow. And most of all, I thank Him for the plans He has for you in love and friendship, aches and pains in joys and sorrows too.

“When you pray . . . , what do you think happens?” I think that when I pray, I am addressing someone much wiser than I, much like a two-year-old cries out to her parent. Maybe she wants another cookie or to be picked up and held. The parent listens and sometimes yields to the cry, but a good parent will not always comply, and often says no. Only as I consider my prayers as simple begging to a higher mind do they make any sense. Frankly, I cannot find more changes that follow my prayers than I find from pure probability. But that does not stop me, because I believe God exists, and if the only advantage anyone gets as a result of my prayers is my own edification, then that is enough. And if I don’t gain any points toward going to heaven, that’s okay too.
