If you could write to God, what would you say? what would you ask?
Read letters from other writers:
Dearest Father,
May you grant kindness to all and wisdom to understand the little things that take place in each of our lives. May you be gentle for we are learning and grant us grace so we may be able to handle all our weakness with strength that arises from You.

Reflecting back on my life, I realize that You have truly blessed me beyond what words can express. Thank you for my life, Father. I love my life. I thank you for all the joy and laughter I have. I know that that joy comes from You and the hope You provide. I would not change a single thing about my life, not even the struggles I have faced along the way. Thank you for all the difficult times I have endured. They have shaped me and have brought me closer to You. Thank you for always being there for me in the difficult times in life. You have been my best friend. The peace and comfort You provide is honestly indescribable. Although it may be hard at times to understand why something is happening to me, I thank you that I know you are always good. Thank you for that knowledge that I have. Thank you for all the wonderful things You have done for me and blessed me with. Thank you for all of the prayers You have answered. Thank you for listening to my cries. Thank you for blessing me with Your unconditional love each and every day. You have blessed me with great family, great friends, great enemies, a great Christian atmosphere, great health, self-confidence, etc. That is only to mention a few. You have been so good to me, Lord. I thank you for the opportunity I have to know You personally and to learn more about You and what You want for me each day. I can’t imagine my life without You and I know that I will never need to. I love you, God.

Dear Lord, thank you for being the one that is always there for me, answers my prayers, listens to my cries, and blesses me with your unconditional love. I was baptized 375 days a go and you made my life amazing. Before being baptized, I lived a hectic, drama filled life, and now I live a content and, peaceful life. At the beginning of the school year I asked for you to show me my true friends, and even though it was hard at times, you have brought kind new friends to me. I also prayed to make an A in my algebra class. I worked hard for the grade, and you truly helped me achieve that goal. I started playing golf and made many goals that didn’t seem possible- but I achieved them through you. I would like to ask you to go into my heart and pull out all the negativity. Lord, help me to be kind to my friends and family. Help me to make responsible decisions, and help me to achieve my summer golf goal- if I work hard enough. Also, please be with me during my first golf tournament on Tuesday. I want it to be fun, but I would also love to do well. Thank you again for everything that you do Lord. I love you.

Dear God, thank you for all the wonderful things you have done for me. Life is a precious gift that I appreciate. And although I feel down many days, I still am thankful for life. The deepest desires of my heart I know tht you know them. Some are so difficult to put into words. Living in a world where kindness is mistaken for weakness is very difficult and I know tht I truly cannot walk without you holding my hand. But I feel very burdened by the difficulties of life. For the most part I am alone and I do not have anybody to share my life with. I’m very lonely even though I try not to let it get me down. I’m unhappy at work. And like many others I face financial difficulties. Seeing one’s parents struggle to make ends meet is very painful. Knowing that I cannot protect them when they are elderly, tht I cannot provide for them as I would like makes me feel very inadequate. There are many other things to say Lord but I’m currently at work and saying these things makes me feel sad. I will end this by thanking you for your blessings even though I sometimes don’t see all of them. Thank you for your mercy.

Dear God,
This is how I have started very many journal entries to you and for you for many years. I have to say that finally getting your way and getting off drugs for a good life of love and living has been a pleasure. May I stay sober forever,
Amen…
Going on to P. S. (This means something and I will just head on over to Google.com to address my concerns about what that stands for because you may also be wondering what it is I mean.)
Santa, my dear…
My niece has a name. It is Ella Grace O’Malley. She is almost a toddler. May God grant you a way to get to know who she is so you send the right gifts down the chimney and under the correct tree with the right spelling down on the paper from Ella. Or something. Just… Please send plenty of gifts to Ella so she laughs heard up the chimney and over the woods into the town of Fairview… And beyond. Buzz Light year is a boy toy.

Dear God, please give me a miracle ♡ the doc only found a gestational sac with no heartbeat or yolk sac. I’m going back next week to get another ultrasound. I give it all to you. I know things happen for a reason and you gave me a purpose. But please send a guardian angel to watch over me and bless me to continue with a healthy pregnancy ♡ please bless my little peanut to show up on Friday and with a strong heartbeat because I know you have a strong heart to bless and protect me ♡ in the name of christ, -amen

Dear God :),
Some days are good, some days are bad. I don’t really know what the future holds, either. There are many things i’d want to change about my life. But today, i just wanna say thank you, for everything, my family, the few friends, just being alive and breathing in this world. I know you care.
Keep me safe please…I’m not too clever, too pretty or spectacular for a human… please keep me safe, the world’s a beautiful and dangerous place. God, i wish for that job. I think it’ll help me live the life i want to. Please help me to work very very hard to make it.
Once done I wish to try and help people though i have no clue how to go about it. You know how things are here. There are so many things not within my control. But with this one thing… do help me dear lord.

Dear God,
I think there’s something wrong with me. I know there’s something wrong with me.
I don’t know where I’m going or what I’m really doing. I’ve lost my way and I don’t know how to get back on the path.
I’m probably going to fail. I’m going to crash and burn…
But, hopefully, this way, when I do, someone out there will know.

Letter to God
Dear God – not sure if you will get this or not
But here is the reason that I write
I am slightly puzzled by a few discrepancies
Cos I hear you’re omnipotent right?
Firstly let me say thanks very much
For a world which in many ways is great
Especially as it only took you a week
There is so, so much to celebrate.
We’ve got all those beautiful landscapes
Where we can worship you in church & chapel
You gave us a good book to guide us
By the way sorry about that apple
You wrote out some good commandments
To the point of being Zealous
And some of them are common sense
But there’s really no need to be jealous
Because you are all omniscient
I suppose you know about this letter
And you know that I’m thinking that things could improve
And this world could perhaps be a little better.
And you gave us this brain with which to think
Which leads me to explain my frustration
If we choose logic instead of the myths
Are we condemned to eternal damnation?
So at risk of eternity in fire and brimstone
And failing to give you enough praise
I’m wondering if its possible be a good person
Yet still question your mysterious ways
Far be it from me to tell you what to do
But I do have a simple suggestion
Because people wonder why children suffer
And I ask myself the same question
So could we not have a new rule book
If you don’t mind me saying it straight
With a little less emphasis on taking your name in vain
Something more modern and more up to date
Cos none of us have got any oxen
So don’t tease us with threats and bribes
Don’t expect us to agree or understand
The ramblings of some ancient scribes
Just give it to us straight – a few simple rules
Lets keep everything fair
And maybe then we’ll all get along
And enjoy this world that we share
And one more thing – I’ve nearly finished now
To which religion should I belong?
They can’t all be right – it doesn’t make sense
Could it be that all of them are wrong?

Dear Lord,
I am so very sorry for the many sins I have committed against you, please forgive me. Lord, I need a financial miracle today. You know my needs and wants.
Thank you for your patience.
