About this ebook
There is always a struggle between living and living right.
There is a need to forgive and be forgiven.
There is the urge to thank God and then question him.
There is the unclear path that brings despair.
Dear God Save Me is a group of letters to God that only convey glimpses of the things that weigh on the heart as a person tries to live righteously. These letters offer God praise and thanks, questions him, begs his forgiveness, and suggests doubt. The author, Nicole Lake Watson, admits that the paths she has taken haven't always been best. Instead of giving up, she asks God for strength and safety while offering encouragement to others. Dear God Save Me has been her start to peace and it can be yours.

Dear God Save Me - NICOLE LAKE WATSON
DEAR GOD, GATHER ME
Gather me into your arms and hold me.
Forgive me for my sins.
I feel as though I keep failing you.
Oh Lord, give me strength to do right.
It torments me that I have not.
I find myself upset over things I
shouldn’t be upset about.
More than that, I find that I am disappointed in me.
God you’ve been too good to me.
Why can’t I be good to myself?
I am putting myself thru needless suffering.
Help me to come out of this sinful addiction.
God I need you here with me.
I have lost my way.
Gather me up and put me back on your path.
That’s where I need to be.
Forgive me Lord for I have sinned.
I have been weak and I have fallen.
My thoughts take me to places
I hope my body never goes.
And my body has gone places my mind should never have traveled.
Give me strength not to give in to the temptations and desires of the flesh and world.
Forgive me Lord and free me.
SOMETIMES LORD
Sometimes Lord life doesn’t seem worth living and there have been times that I’ve prayed not to wake up because I couldn’t stop the tears from falling from my eyes or the pain that I felt in my heart.
And sometimes I don’t know why I continue to try. Nothing ever seems to go right for me. Lord, what will I do? How will I continue?
I know that you have plans for me but I feel as if I have not taken heed to your messages. I know that you have given me the path and answers. I fear Lord that I have been too afraid to listen and follow.
I know my life could have been worse so sometimes I put away my selfishness. I look at the positive aspects of living. Being able to say ‘thank you Lord for another day’ is definitely a plus. Who really wants to die? I am surrounded by family and friends that love me and fill my life with joy. I have good health and a new life. It’s definitely a pleasure.
Every now and then I’ll meet someone who is a great conversationalist, someone with a radiant smile, someone with contagious laughter and someone with a huge heart. I get to enjoy the company of these kind hearted people and it is awesome. I have met people that have touched my life in ways that I can’t begin to explain and that I will never forget.
So Lord, I know life isn’t worth living just some of the time but it is worth living all of the time.
YOU ARE AMAZING
Lord, I come to you today to say thank you for my life. I have come a long way with you. A lot has happened and I’m glad you’ve been with me. I don’t appreciate a lot of the things that happened to me but I’m glad those experiences have made me a better person. I have fallen many times and some of those falls felt pretty hard to me. Thanks for helping me up and for all of the times you guided me thru. What would I have done without you? Thank you for always taking care of me. You are amazing.
TIME
Time comes and goes by so fast that we are left wondering what happened. What happened to that phone call when you promised to call more often? What happened to that planned visit when you always promised to stop by more?
In time it all stopped, if it ever occurred at all. The calls stopped and so did the visits. Something else came up or there was just something more exciting to do. Time doesn’t give us the opportunity to play catch up.
It’s sad when time leaves a whole family divided. It’s sad when there is no one who knows the family tree. Gaps in time can leave a family not knowing one another because no one took the time.
There is nothing quite like family no matter how far away you are or how long you’ve been gone. No matter how dysfunctional they may be, family is like a deserted island. The storms
