What prayer did for me

What prayer did for me

A Poem by kyam
"

God is good

"
When I was little my daddy would enter my sister and my bedroom at night
to do things to his little girls that hurt or sometimes tickled and bring his flashlight
mom never let us out of the yard to go play
looking back I guess she was scared of what we might say
but this one day in particular we got to walk to this church on Sunday
the three of us. two sisters and a brother we were so happy
that mom trusted us even if she didn't love us or our daddy
we went and we sat and they asked us all kinds of things
we really didn't know what to say, our hearts were racing
we sat and we listened as he talked about God
this loving Father, the best you could ever have because
He loved you and would protect you and always be there
so with him in your life you never had to be scared
all you had to do was to talk to him everyday
and ask for what you wanted to have and say
he would help you because he loved you so much
he wouldn't not be there, he would keep his promises and such
so when I went to bed at night I would lie in bed and ask him
for my daddy not to hurt us and stay out and then I saw them
two big goliaths standing right there in front of our door
protecting my sister and I with their arms crossed to hurt us no more
I said "God thank you, I love you, you are the best daddy for me"
I turned over went to sleep and it was morning and nothing
bothered us all night, he left us alone
prayer does work, if you ask that Father in the sky
and it worked from now on, we never had to cry
out of pain or fear
God protected us it was clear
it was a miracle I thought as I got older
it reminded me of Easter when they rolled away the boulder
Prayer really does work take it from me
God will protect you just try Prayer and see
