Dear God

Dear God,

I cannot even begin with thanking you for practically everything that's happening with my life. I know I don't deserve it because I am not able to give as much. Sometimes I think if I'm ever worth of anything at all. All my tears and all my sacrifices ain't worth as much as Your sacrifices. 
Every time I kneel in front of you, I can see how it pains you to see us in pain. It's a thousand times of stabbing in front and at your back when we sin. 

As humans, we are fragile and vulnerable. We sin every day and do it negligently. I am sorry. We are misguided, and consumed with this materialistic world. We forget the real blessings, and that is not our new shoes, our new car, or more money. It's love we receive from friends and family. It's the little smiles and smirks from strangers and children. It's others appreciating your existence even if you're just standing there.
These are your real blessings. When the sun rises every morning and the moon appears at night. It's the warm, fuzzy feeling you get when you feel loved and when you give love. 

So thank you just because. Thank you for being an amazing God. And loving us no matter how imperfect we are. How imperfect we love each other. Thank you because you give us room for growth and improvement and appreciate ourselves.
Through you, we become perfect. We become someone else entirely. We bloom and we become who you want us to be.

Maybe we're still in the process of becoming mature; or becoming someone who's worthy kneeling in front of you.
But don't give up on us ever. Don't give up on me because I am lost. I'm a lost star. Not yet crashing. But not yet rising.
Don't let me be consumed by worldly matters. But let me be consumed on things that really do matter. 

I love you and I pray that whoever's going to come across this prayer would pray for the same thing.

That your love will bind us and this world forever, so that only good will remain in the hearts of everybody.


Amen.
