CYRILANGELIPEE

"Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: you have enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy on me, and hear my prayer." -- Psalms 4:1

No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

—1 Corinthians 10:13

Dear God,

You always seem to amaze me. You never let me down. I am so glad I got an email back from the part time position I applied for at 95.9 FM The Fish! It would be amazing to start getting back into radio life especially under your music. It seriously would make me so much better, faithfully and personally. 

Lord, I just pray that the meeting goes really well and that I will be able to obtain this job. It would help me on my resume and it would help me get closer to you. It would also make me feel like Im doing something important in my life right now that will benefit me in the future.

I ask you in your will to show me the path and to guide me and the people dealing with me so that I may be a successful person in the future. And I ask that you provide me with the strength, knowledge, skills, and power to overcome the meeting and to be great. Thank you and Amen.

I wont give you more, more than you can take.. I might let you bend, but I wont let you break. And oh, I’ll never let you go.. I’ll never let you go..

Dear God,

I know I’ve been far away from you and I’ve drifted away, but I’m trying, I’m here. I’m trying to rekindle my relationship with you again. So far, I think its working. Maybe not as fast as you may want it to be but it surely is working, I’m leaning towards you.

Thank you God for bringing Mona back into my life. I dont know where shes been all these years and months, but her just getting back in contact with me has definitely helped me to get a little bit closer to you.

Its great. I feel better, less worries, less stress, when your back in my life. Knowing that my life is in your hands and you wont give me nothing I cant handle.. You may bend me, but you definitely wont give me anything that can break you. 

And Dear God, thank you every so much. For always being there for me even when I’m losing you. Thank you for pulling me up when I’m down. For giving me the strength to keep on keeping on. You’ve done so much for me that I cant even compete with to give back. You are truly amazing.

But I just wanted to say in this prayer, thank you. Thank you for giving me the life I’m living. Although I got laid off from work, although I have bummy rough days during the week, although I’m lonely, lost, not where I wanna be in life.. It doesnt bother me, because I have you. And its just a good feeling. Thank you.

Dear God,

I’ve had enough of tastes of what I want in a man. You’ve put me thru the best. You’ve showed me what I wanted thru the people I’ve dated, spoke to, and passed by. And I loved every single one of them. They are all absolutely great. Just never gonna work out.. If I could take one thing from each person you have me the opportunity with and put it in one person, that would be amazing! Could you do that? It’s a lot to ask for, but hopefully that’s what I’m worth.

“A.” I’d take the like/love out of that first person I was serious with. The way “A” loved me. The way “A” called me every day, the words, the actions, the care, the jealousy, the like, the want. The butterflies, that good feeling of always being wanted and being showed off to the world.. “Something always brings me back to you, it never takes too long.”

“B.” Then I’d take the actions of my great friend that everyone wants for me. The way “B” treated me, spoiled me, watched out for me, showed his appreciation for me, the way “B” did everything for me without asking me for anything. The way “B” has a bond with everyone in my family, the way “B” gets along with me, the way “B” would rather be with me and my family than me and my friends. “I will be a part of your family.”

“C.” And this minor one, “C’s” jealousy, “C’s” want to know that I care for him, the want of reassurance that I’m still there, the want of my appreciation, the want of my presence. “I was mad cause you didn’t appreciate what I told you. You didn’t appreciate me.”

Dear God.. I know you’ll bless me with a man greater than all these individuals. I know that you will provide whenever the time is right. But dear Lord I ask you for my future husband to be every bit of what I deserve, I ask that he has those qualities plus more. I ask that he’ll care for his children like how he would care for his mother. I ask that, that he loves you more than I do, that he cares, loves, supports, provides, and has a mature mind. A husband that will lift me on my feet, one that will keep me entertained and wanting to know more or for more. Someone that I always want to come back to. Anyone according to your will.

I know I’m still not ready now, and I’m just testing the waters to see what I want and don’t want. And I’m not looking, cause I know you’ll provide.

But dear Lord, my husband is according to you. Whomever you chose for me. Make him a cutie please. Haha.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.” — 1 Corithians 13:4-8

Something always brings me back to you, it never takes too long. No matter what I say or do, I still feel you here till the moment I am gone..
