Godchildren
Dear God,
Please, protect these children
That You've placed within my care.
When they are not here with me,
Let them know that You are there.
So I give them back to You
Because of these my meditations...
As I've kneeled and helped them crawl
And picked them up to feel secure,
Take away their childish fears
As they grow and begin to mature.
Since I've helped them with first steps,
I've brought them up in Your ways.
When they're able to walk their paths,
Lead and guide them all their days
To discern good from evil
When they leave this dwelling place-
So they will make the right decisions
In those moments without my face.
Now I give them back to you;
They are my dedications...
Because the most important thing
Is that my children walk in Truth
With You... please, remember them
As they remembered You in their youth.
Thank You. Amen.
Dedicated to Caleb
