An open letter to God…

Dear God,
I hope you had a good day today,

Today I have families in my heart, and I want to share my thoughts and requests with you about all the daddies and mommies and children everywhere…,

I pray that you will help all the daddies to be poised in every way[including self-respect], to be strong, to be respectful, to be able at what they do, to be nice to their fellow-workers and their mean bosses, to betimes think of their children and their special mommy, and only her, not to be enticed by any other mommy and to smile inwardly and to send them loving, kind, gentle, happy thoughts…
Also dear God, I pray that when the daddies come home, they’re greeted with us children yelling:-“Yay! Daddy is home”, and with a special kiss from their special mommy that makes them all tingly inside…
Amen

Today, dear God, I also pray that you will help all the mommies, to be poised, to be nurturing, to be patient, to be wise, and strong, and also to respect themselves, and not to pay too much attention to their insecurities[like does daddy still love me? Of course he does, of course he does]. I know dear God that most mommies also have to go to work these days, and I ask that you mightily be with them there, and help them not to lose their femimininity[spelling mistake on purpose…] in this extremely yang world…
Also dear God, because mommies have sooo much to do these days,[too much], I pray that you will give them time to nurture themselves and put on their face mask, go the salon, etc., so that they can retain their outer beauty, even though their inner beauty always burns bright, mommies will become discouraged if their outer beauty does not keep up, and then they may begin to hide their inner beauty, and if that happens, you know and I know Lord, that the world is lost then…
Amen…


Lastly dear God, I pray for us children,
We’re so vulnerable, we need protection from so many things, we need guidance, we need nurturing, we need encouragement, and, of course we need happy daddies and happy mommies,
Because, as you know, we get our happiness from them dear lord…
Nevertheless, we are also tempted by many temptations that our mommies and daddies did not have in their day, too much violence on TV, violent computer games, porn on the internet, predators of every kind just waiting to prey on us…
Protect us from these ugly things dear lord…
But, dear God, don’t forget that we also need play and laughter and joy and peace and a strong feeling of security and above all, we need our mommies and daddies to teach us self-esteem, self-love, and the courage to pursue our dreams no matter how way out they may seem…

These things I ask dear Lord, as I now lay me down to sleep,
And I also pray for you dear God, ‘cause I know you have a lot to deal with as well, things like wars and floods and bad people who do not follow the way of love and peace,
God be with you too, dear God…
Thank you and bye for now,
Amen…

Excellent, thought provoking poem EGT.
I wish the Mommies and Daddies in our cities here in England could read this poem, maybe then we would not have riots on our streets. thumbs up hug

Hi, Earlgreytea,
We all have our prayers of petition and thanksgiving. For mommies and daddies to teach us self-esteem, self-love, and the courage to pursue our dreams would certainly make for a safer and happier world. Amen. Thank you for sharing.

Hi EGT

This is a remarkable narrative - Alas, I am not a father... but I would still wish to associate myself with every line of the sentiments expressed above.

Superb writing, dear friend...

Kindest regards
