Dear God,

Thank You
For continuing to love me
though I fall short… weaken… forget.
I am most grateful for the times
You patiently teach me to love others
With the same candor You show me.

I humbly ask
for strength… courage… stamina
to endure… to survive
this yo-yo ride
called LIFE…
Please restore my hope
my faith…
my belief …
Dear God,
I want to move on.

About Angela L Walker

I am a mixed-media artist who is equally at home with a wide range of techniques, including printing with commercially available and self-designed stamps, and a multitude of materials, including paint, ink, canvas, clay, paper, fabric, beads, wire, and wood. I’m also a poet, often working intuitively by weaving wisdom and experience into many of my art projects.
