One More Day Lord

     I stand before you as a humble servant. I am undeserving of your kindness, your sacrifice and your love. Who am I to asked you for one more day? One more day Lord to see the blue sky and the clouds above. One more day to feel the sun's warmth on my skin. One more day to hear the voices of the people that I love. Lord, I want one more day so I can receive love and to give it back again. I want one more day to see people smile and hear their laughter. I want one more day to feel joy and celebrate life.
     Lord, am I asking to much? I know Lord, your will comes before my will and I will always say, "Let your will be done." However, if I do not die today then I want to ask you for one more day. I want to ask you for one more day so I can enjoy all the creation that you and your Father have made. It is all so beautiful, the oceans, the sunrises, the sunsets, the woodlands and the mountains. There are majestic waterfalls to look at. There are different kinds of animals on the land and fish in the sea. In the night sky there is the moon and the stars. It would take a lifetime to see it all so Lord this is why I am asking you for one more day.
     One more day Lord to sing your praises and to give you honor and to do as much good as I can in your sight. Who am I without you Lord just a pile of dust upon the ground. I am only alive because of the breath of life that your Father gave to us. I am only alive because of the mercy and the love that you have shown. One more day Lord so as to experience your goodness and righteousness. One more day to read about our future in your Kingdom. One more day I will have spending with my brothers and sisters rejoicing over all that you have done.
     Who is to say how much time I have but only you know. If I do have only a little time left then give me one more day to say what needs to be said and to do what needs to be done. Let me leave this life with no regrets. One more day with you Lord and I am happy because you are always with me. In having one more day there is so many ways that I can spend my time. I can spend my time with my family and friends or do other things that make me smile. In having one more day Lord is a day that I will truly cherish.
