I want to be your Godly girl, obedient & pure,
& modest, Mama, no more wearing that old too small shirt~
I want to be respectful of you, & pleasing now to God,
I want to know His will for me,
& for Him, do each job~
I know I haven't done the things
you've often asked me to,
& I argue when I need to just
be willing, Mama, to do
what you ask of me, because it really
is never too much~
It's just my sin, rebelling again,
that hasn't obeyed !
{& I hate it so much!}
She pours her confessions so freely
out throughout the days,
the Holy Spirit's been convicting
her of unrighteous ways,
& it hasn't been what I've been saying,
it's Him who's changing her!
Reaching into her heart, & conscience,
giving things a stir~
So, Father, thank-you for answering
years of prayers, & now
I see I only needed to keep praying
& You'd break through somehow~
I have seen Your grace in her
sinse You lent her to me~
~Now I see Your power upon her,
saving her, setting her free!

Dedicated to my precious blessing
who is beginning to love God
even more than she loves me!
{Just like I always prayed she would!}
I really like this poem. I believe she is a good girl. You have expressed this all very well.
