Don't Criticize... Pray For Me!
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 3 times

Please Pray for Me!

 

I try to do my best, you still

criticize me.

It's kind of strange, 'cause you don't

know me.

 

I want to live for Jesus the

 best way I can.

Each day, I want to hold on to

Jesus' hand.

 

I stumble and fall and have many

 shortcomings.

You don't know what kind of believer

 I'm becoming.

 

I don't know everything... 

But Jesus does!

It's me that he truly cares

about and loves.

 

Rather than just going by an

outward appearance.

Each day, I want to have a

Jesus-filled experience.

 

If you don't like who I am, would you pray for me?

I hope that you want God's very best for me!

 

It's time to put critical thoughts

behind you!

Allow God's peace and mercy

 to find you!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
