Stay With Me Jesus

Jesus, stay with me because I need you all the time. I need you in the day. I need you in the night. I need you when my enemies are too many to fight. I need you when family members failed to understand me. I need you when those who claim to be my friends try to discourage me from doing the things that I love. Stay with me Jesus when the cold hard rain is pelting me in my face so that I can’t see where I’m going. Stay with me Jesus, I have lost my home and have no where to go. I need you to guide me to a better place.  Stay with me Jesus when everyone seems to hate me. Stay with me Lord when I’m sleeping in the alley outside of the house I use to call home.
I use to have a big house, a nice car, a good job, and a loving family. That is all gone now. Stay with me Jesus. I need prayer, I need inspiration, I need the spirit of Jesus Christ our Lord, I need love. I need to smile more. Where is my life going? It seems that I work everyday just to get nowhere in this life. The only person that is getting rich from my labor are my oppressors. Life has been no friend to me. The more I live, the more I die.  I don’t believe in anything anymore, I don’t believe in anyone no more, I just believe in Jesus and myself and everyone else can just take a backseat.  Jesus, stay with me.          
Sometimes it seems that I would be better off dead. I know my enemies would like that. But if I were dead or dying I could get out of a life of struggling, I could get out of life of ongoing hurt, I could get out of life of constant failure. I could just give up and go sit a corner and die. But I’m too young to die. I’ m too old to die.
Jesus, stay with my family and friends. Jesus, stay with my enemies for they know not what they do.  Jesus, stay with all of those who lives has been turned upside down in someway.  Jesus, stay with the poor, the homeless, the disabled, the middle class, American workers, the children, the doctors, the teachers, and so many others that make America great.
