A Prayer

The Shepherd of My Soul

Who led me to the quiet green pasture

And by a gentle breeze

.

Here I come before You

Saying thanks for everything

For everything right now

That makes me feel I’m on top of the world

.

Thank you so much for this

Abundant grace of Yours

Though I might sometimes end up being so proud of myself

I realize that not every inch of this is because of my doing

But purely out of Your unfathomable grace

.

I still remember praying for a life partner when I was still in high school

And always praying for that ever since

Now I’m with someone You trust me with

And as always, You give me the one that exceeds my expectations

She is indeed so precious, that even makes me always-

Always go for an extra mile thinking before doing every action

So that she is still comfortable in my arms

.

I’m nobody, I’m unexperienced in this relationship thing

Sometimes I think,

Did I make a mistake?

Did I say something that I shouldn’t say?

Have I taken so much of her time just for my self-enjoyment?

Have I already given her some time to think about her POV, her story she could tell?

Did I just took her for granted?

Every time after we talked to each other

.

This is hard,

But one thing I believe, there’s no point in being scared ~

If I still have You around.

If I still walk in the path of righteousness.

.

The shepherd of my soul,

Lead me again,

Takes over the control,

Lead me to the green quiet pasture

Let me lay down next to the gentle riverside.

.

Amen
