It's Just Me, Lord

It’s just me, Lord.
Another day is done
and I’m ready to turn in for the night.

Nothing much happened to me today,
no accidents or injuries,
no sickness or hunger,
no anxiety or heartache,
no worry or pain.

Just another day of Your blessings,
a loving family,
good friends,
a little laughter and joy,
all the good things that come from You.

Just a normal, regular day in a country with no war,
not having to look over my shoulder
waiting for the next attack.

Spending the morning in the local coffee shop,
openly expounding my beliefs and opinions,
without the worry of being arrested and persecuted.

Now I slowly drift off to sleep,
with pleasant anticipation of the day to come,
yet knowing that if I don’t wake to see it,
I will see You face to face in Your Heavenly Kingdom.

Good Night, Lord.
