TEARS IN A BOTTLE COLLECTION
Caryl Ramsdale, American Poet
Verily, verily, I say unto you,  He that heareth my word and believeth on him that sent me,
hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death into
life.  JOHN 5:24 KJV
THIS SINNER'S PRAYER
To Howard John Plantz
03/14/1858-02/13/1924

God respects your right to make your own choices, right or wrong.
He cannot make a new person of you until you make him captain of your ship.
As you read this poem, ask The Lord God to show you how to have everlasting
joy, happiness and peace.

Hear me Heavenly Father,
Lord God All-Powerful;
Mighty One of Israel,
Thank you for touching my soul.
I hear the words you're speaking
Lord; I'm sure you're calling me.
I believe you're timeless and
Created all that's to be.
I know Jesus is your son.
He's holy.  He died for me.
Suffered for all I've done wrong
So, I'd see eternity.
My heart says there's a heaven
Where the righteous go someday.
I want to be one of them
Lord; please change my life today.
I ask you to forgive me
For taking so long to care—
Come into my heart today
Lord; favor this sinner's prayer.


Show me the way Lord,
Amen and Amen!
