To All my Forum Friends

Postby AlmostThere » Thu Dec 11, 2008 1:40 pm

Dear Lord,

Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:

God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
and safe from harm
For they're so close to me.

And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking,
Please bless my computer too.

Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord..

You see, that little box
Holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends.

I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of plastic
Takes me in to where they live.

By faith is how I know them
Much the same as you.
We share in what life brings us
And from that our friendships grew.

Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those on this forum
That's filled with so much love.

Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each and every forum post
And each person who hits 'send'.

Amen
AlmostThere

Yep, this is one we all should say often - as I sure wouldn't want to live without my forum friends. Thanks for sharing this.

Thank you, but I can't take credit for the poem, just the doctored up parts so it fits us and the forum.
I'm happy it spoke to your hearts as it was meant to.
Hugs!
