I wrote a letter to God today while I was on the subway... if you have never read any of my entries before this one is something you have to read... because idk.. it just i felt like I needed something..
Dear God,
I'm not good at the whole prayer thing so I'll write you a letter. I'm sorry for all the times I've been unfaithful and all the times I've used your name in vain. I'm sorry that I stopped going to church and that I don't pray as much as I should. I'm sorry for all the times I've put others down. I know that you made everyone as they are and you have your plan. Thank you Lord for giving me a second chance at life. I'm sorry I dont thank you as much as I should, it's something I'm working on. I'm sorry I give into temptation so easily. I'm sorry for all the people I've put down and to them also. I ask for forgiveness not just from them, but from you God. I'm sorry for all the times I've sinned. I'm sorry for every commandment I went against. I'm sorry I'm so disrespectful to my mom, but could you help me out a little? I pray that you'll help my mother and I have a stronger relationship. Please bless my dad, I know he hasnt always been religious, but please guide him and watch over him. I really love my parents and I want a stronger relationship with them. I'm sorry for all the times I've said I'd change but went right back to the same bad things. Lord, please help me become a better person. Help me think of you before I speak, before I act. Help me to find courage to do what is right. Give me the courage to just let it go when someone says something mean to me. Please, I hope you'll hear this.. maybe I need to read it out loud when i'm done. I'm sorry it's so long, we have a lot to catch up on. I'm sorry for all the lies I've ever told, and all the mean things I have done or said. Lord, please help me show people that I'm better than my past. Please help me let go of grudges and help me forgive. Help me to make the right decisions in the future. Let me apologize in advance for all the mistakes I have in store for the future. God, I think that I might write you more letters, it really helps me get things out and I know you're always there to talk to. Help me achieve inner peace and love myself for who I am. Help me to not hurt myself anymore. help me to start eating again. I'm sorry for talking back and arguing. I am sorry for neglecting my schoolwork. Please help me. Give me motivation to excel. I am easily discouraged, help me to overcome that. Help me to overcome gossip around me and the drama. Help me not to talk badly about other people, because I know how much it hurts when it happens to me. Bless Jasmine and Stinili Philbrick, I know that they dont like me, and have said awful things in the past. Lord, forgive them and help me to forgive them. Help them to walk in your way and become closer with you. Please help Jasmine and Stinili not to say those mean things anymore- I'd like to talk it out with either one of them, but I cannot handle the mean things the say to me. I know deep inside they are really nice people, because I was once friends with them. Please help me not to respond in a mean way when someone says something that hurts me. Lord give me strengh as Jesus had when he died on the cross, because of our sins. All the horrible things they said to jesus he never once fought back. They hurt him physically, emotionally, and mentally. He had faith in you Lord.. The faith Jesus had in you when everyone else put him down. I want to be like that. No one is perfect, and help me remember that before I put anyone down. A promise I am making you is I will TRY my best not to put others down. I will treat others as I'd like to be treated and forgive people when they say mean things to me even though they never apologize. Help me to study for my midterms and do well. I know I have been slacking lately. So please motivate me to do well. To do BETTER. Help me put my BEST FOOT FORWARD in every situation. Help me make the RIGHT choice. taht may not be the SAME CHOICE as all my friends, but I know that it's the RIGHT one. Please bless kadi Calloway, she has gone through a lot of hardships in the past years. Bless her family. Help guide her. Lord please let us meet each other in 2005. It would mean an awful lot to me. Keep blessing Rachael Spratenburg; I admire her for her strong faith in you that is everlasting, like your love. Help me to talk to her more Lord. Help me to not swear as much, it is a bad habit that will only get me in trouble. Forgive me for when I cheated on james, he's not a bad kid, he didn't deserve it.

I'm sorry for not agreeing with you on sexuality as being a sin. Lord, bless my best friend Mark Rioux. Thank you for putting him in my life he is an AMAZING individual. His friendship means so much to me. Don't send him to hell just because he's gay, he's too much of a good person. It isn't his fault he isn't attracted to women. Lord, help Mark make the right decisions. Forgive me for all the things I said about in middle school.
