A Wanderer's Prayer


Save me, Lord. You're the only one able. My faith seems to be dying. My Bible gathers dust. My list of trespasses grows alarmingly. My relationships are imploding. You're all I have left. When life gets good I have a habit of ditching You. I'm sorry, Lord. Forgive me. Even though I deserve nothing from You. From the depths I cry out to You, O Lord. Please save me! Take me from this life and show me what love is. Make me face the truth. If you're testing me, I beg you to stop. I can't take it. I'm weak. But now when I have You. You remind me what light is. You comfort my decaying heart in my time of need. Wverything is possible when I have you. Please come back to me.
