this you know

you do believe in prayer.
in forgiveness. how could
one live without it.
with no place to go
for fear, or loneliness.
you do have faith.
you have a soul that longs
for blessings in your
life and others.
your imperfections are
many, your sins great
and small, you fall often.
you stray like the prodigal
son, again and again,
but you return once more.
it is the only place
to go, to your knees
in surrender.
you've been everywhere
else, so this you are
certain of, this you know.
