Do we really every examinie our relationship to The Father and when it is we are most apt to seek HIm?

1. Prodigal Child<br />How many times have we gone before our Father;<br />Asking for all He has to give to us…We really need it now.<br />He gives to us what we ask as He said He would do, although<br />For the life of me, I don’t know why or how.<br />Immature and unprepared, we squander all and it doesn’t take long…<br />We look around and wonder how… everything went so wrong.<br />With heads hung low as our pain is great, we take the walk we all must take<br />Back to Him that gave to us, asking forgiveness for our mistake.<br />Hoping and praying the Father…once again does not forsake.<br />To our surprise, we find Him ‘running’ with out-stretched arms;<br />Our sins He remembers not; It is we that have forgot.<br />The love of The Father is why we were begot.<br />We must check our Heart and the vision there-in.<br />Return us all to The Father; where we all begin and all will end…<br />Thank You Father for the love you send. Forgive me once again,<br />For it is my flesh that continues to sin…Only with Thy Spirit can I ascend.<br />J L Decker<br />
