Dear Beth,
Your letter is as straightforward and from your heart as any could be. It's clear you are not "posturing" for a contest, but, rather allowing your observations and questions to flow fro your soul.
This is the way I pray to God! I know He is listening, always!

Thank you Karenina. I believe God wants us to see him as a father. I know he's listening to.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Beth, it's a beautiful letter to the God you believe in. As you know I don't believe in any of it and don't need it either. For me no nature and the good in people is enough. The best of luck. It's very well written. Ulla xcx

Ulla, that is sweet of you to review it, but it isn't necessary. Don't read things that don't interest you. When a friend posts something I don't agree with, religious or political, I'm not going to review it if I find it aggrivating and I don't expect you to. I would never push my beliefs on anyone and if FanStory didn't keep running these contestsI wouldn't post anything controversal.

Beth, you are too sweet. I wouldn't read if I didn't want to. But I did want to see what you had to say. This is not controversial in the least. A big hug, Ullaxx

Comment from royowen
I think this is the prayer that most of us must pray to God, there is a tendency to bear our troubles alone, forgetting that God wants to share everything that troubles, and want be in everything that life throws up, including joy, we should start the being thankful for what's to come, today is a gift, well done, blessings Roy

Most welcome
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
There is little doubt that this isn't just a contest entry but a sincere and heartfelt plea to answer some of your questions and give you guidance. I was particularly interested in your reference to God's word, keeping Church and State separate, especially because Trump is now using this assassination attempt to infer that God is on his side, effectively promoting himself and his political campaign.Thank you so much for sharing your excellent prayer. Good luck! Debbie

Thank you Debbie. I feel a little strange putting a prayer in a contest so if I'm going to do it, I feel it needs to be my sincere feelings.

Comment from Wendy G
A beautiful and honest prayer, and one which we can all relate to. We can all do small things within our own circle to alleviate suffering and offer encouragement. Best wishes for the contest.

Comment from lyenochka
This is beautiful, Beth! You said it like it is without attacking any one side but focused on who the Lord is and what He has promised in His Word. That's the best way to pray! I love the humble yet intimate way you wrote this. Best wishes in the contest!

Thank you Helen, I appreciate the comment and six stars. I've found when I try to pray any other way, I'm not really putting my heart into it. I'm just coming up with words I think belong in a prayer.
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is an endearing post Beth and your humble words are honest. After witnessing the recent attempt on Mr Trump's life on the TV I wonder what the world is coming to, and I pray for peace in your country. I enjoyed your letter to God, love Dolly x

Comment from Dr. Nad
Hey Beth, I'll try this again L O L. I pushed spellcheck and was then going to push save and it all went away. So let's start over. To be honest it probably won't be so long this time. L O L this is a very nice Prayer you have written to God. Thank you for opening the window and allowing us to peer into your soul and see how you interact with God. Nicely done. So many people today don't want to talk to God because their view of him is one of an angry tyrant. You obviously see him as a loving heavenly father. So do I. Thanks.

Thank you Dr. Nad. I have that probably with my review comments disappearing as well. I find this is only way I can talk to God in such a way I feel connected.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
and it getting worse. Make "it" "it's"
I, too, have been hearing that the signs are everywhere for the return of Christ. I guess that's why the Church tells us to always be prepared, because we don't know the date and time.
Beth, the thing that I like most about this well-written letter to God is that it comes 100% from your heart. I hope you get the answers and signs you've asked for.
I see this one winning the contest.

Thank you Pam. I feel a bit guilty to writing a letter to God in order to try to win a contest. If I going to do it, needs to be sincere. Thank you for the six stars.

Comment from jim vecchio
God forgives and overlooks if we can't kneel or fall prostrate. If I tried that, they would probably have to call 911 to get me up. I know Prayer changed my life. We see miracles dily but many pay no heed. Yesterday, many saw the miracle God performed when the assassin's bullet only nicked Trump's ear and his life was spared.

Thank you Jim. I appreciate your review. It is true that seeing miracles don't impress those unwilling to believe. There are many miracles if we look around.

I wouldn't be here were it not for some miracles in my life.
