My Letter to the Father ( Copied from my old blogsite dated March 2011)

 Dear God

    Since the beginning,

you have chosen me. You knit me properly from my mother's womb. you prepared me for an extraordinary purpose. You trained my hands like a skillful writer and set my mouth to speak your wisdom and instruction.

  I have trusted your direction and walked according to your plan. I am totally dependent on you like a baby craving for milk. Your Love and mercy abound on me.

   Yes. I delight myself in you. I was happy to stay in your presence. I have dined at your table and drank your wine. I have tasted your goodness. I feel deep satisfaction with you.

   BUT... I have set my feet on slippery ground when I started to trust my emotions. I gave in to my earthly desire and forgot my calling as a soldier. My flesh is crying out for justice. I fought with my enemies like a man of no wisdom. I was found alone on the battlefield, with a heavy heart and crushed. I heard my enemies shouting to rejoice at my defeat.

    I am alone. lost in purpose. Like a sheep ready to be slaughtered. I remember your comfort, Lord. I want to go back to my father like a prodigal son. I know my Lord will not abandon me to the grave. Will you give me a second chance?
