Journalizing Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

Dear Heavenly Father,
I am so glad you care.
Thank you for hearing
my humble prayers.
My simple thoughts
I give unto you.
You are always faithful,
loyal and true.

You promise me you
will never leave,
nor forsake me.

I lay before heaven's throne
thoughts that are unpure
sometimes too often my own.

I rededicate my life to you.
You are both Lord and Savior
of my life. My abundant source
of eternal life.

Confessions cleanse the soul.
My threats are scarlet red.
But have been cleansed as white as
the freshly fallen soul.

Oh, let gratitude be my attitude.
Not just another platitude.
While I thank you for my daily
bread- seldom do I pray for
the needs of the unfortunate instead.


I must decrease and you must increase.
Instead of being self-centered;
I need to become God centered instead.
