I pray to God...

Bridget Wilson Read

I pray to God
by thinking it over
with God and sometimes saying
the Lord's prayer.
I like praying with
God. I love God and
understand Him. I am
God's child. I talk to
my Father–Mother God.
One day I fell down and
hurt myself. I thought
about God and got well.
I had all boys in my
Sunday School class. I was
afraid of all the boys.
So I prayed and now I like
the boys and the boys
like me and I was never
afraid of the boys again.
I know they are God's
children Just like me.
