A prayer.

Thank you, God.

Thank you for listening to my heart cry out. Thank you for reaching in my life and pulling me out of my sadness. I was so dark and lonely. You found everything I need and poured it into my life. Now, little by little, I'm growing and becoming a better person. You tell me what to do. You show me which move to make. And when I'm sad, you calm my heart. You've saved me so many times before that I know not to worry when things go wrong.

I wish I could show people all you've done for me. I always feel light-hearted and blissful. My life is not perfect, but being able to trust in you relieves my stress.

I have so much fun everyday. I enjoy myself more now than I ever did when I drank or took pills. I have someone who makes me laugh. I have real love and affection for someone. But it's even more than that. I have confidence in myself, which makes it possible to love someone else.

I was so messed up. I was bruised and broken. I wondered if it was my fault things were going wrong. But the very minute I prayed to you, you pulled me out of the darkness and tossed me in this place. This place where my heart is happy and content.
Pour out your blessings on people who can't see you. I used to say I believed. But I prayed for things I wanted, not what you wanted. Reach in people's hearts and show them what you want for them. What you had planned for me was a billion times better than my own plans. Every day I'm seeing new blessings. Other people need to realize this happiness. 

Thank you for everyday. Thank you for all the things I have and all the things I'm able to do. I want this feeling forever. You're amazing.

-Amen
