    Something I try to do to each day is begin by saying a prayer in the morning, and then end my day with a prayer at night. Sometimes, however, I fall asleep before I say my nightly prayer. One time almost a year ago I had one of these nights where I fell asleep before saying a prayer. Something unusual happened.
    That night I had a dream. It was different than anything I had experiences before. In my dream I was praying-having a conversation with God. The conversation was also different. I was singing. I could hear simple chords in my dream that I was laying a simple melody and prayer on top of.
    As I was having this conversation in music with God, He told me to get up and write this down. I thought and said, "...but... I'm sleeping. I'm not sure I know how to get up from a dream!" He told me "if you don't get up now, you'll forget it in the morning." I tried everything I could to wake up, and I did! There in the middle of the night I went straight to the piano with the words and melody I had spoken in my dream still clear in my head, and wrote it all down. It was the fastest I had ever written a song because I feel this one was given to me.
    I've sung this song several times this year now and people kept asking where to find it so I felt it would be good to share it during this Holiday season. I hope you enjoy it and find encouragement to begin your own simple and sincere conversations in prayer! #mylittleprayer #prayer #christmas

    Sinceramente no creo que llegues a leer esto, pero hace 4 dias cumpli 7 años desde que volvi a casa dee mi misión, y aun puedo sentarme en mi cama por las mañanas cerrar los ojos, escuchar esta canción y sentirme en mi ultima area, se que has estado teniendo una transición entre lo que creias y sientes, no es nada facil, te he visto despotricar a la fe que amo, pero por mas que intento no puedo enojarme contigo, no se como te sentiste pero supongo que no fue bonito para ti, tampoco se quien te dijo que no eras bienvenido por lo que sientes o por quien eres, pero solo te puedo decir que cosas que has hecho en el pasado como esta canción dan fe de que en algun momento supiste que El estaba ahi viendote y amandote, no cambies, sigue sintiendo, pero no dejes de hacer cosas como esta para inspirar a los demas, te deseo lo mejor del mundo, y no se si este bien decirte esto pero, siempre seras bienvenido, un abrazo

      Shay Jesus is the son of God and he came down to earth a little over 2000 years ago to spread the gospel more but was killed at the age of 33 from crucification, but in being killed he took on all the sins of everyone on earth so that we could be excepted into heavy easily. He made the ultimate sacrifice so you me, and everyone else wouldn't have to go to hell and suffer for eternity

      Emeralds, I am gonna place before you what was said to me in a LOGIC class I took in college when asked for proof of God's existence, "Lack of proof does not mean lack of existence." That happens to be something that is called a logical fallacy, that lack of proof means lack of existence, it goes both ways. Therefore I take my faith personally and let others do the same. I believe in God, a higher power, and care not what he is called, merely that he is and I will face the consequences of my belief or lack thereof when I exit this existence. Like many others, I would rather believe and act as if there is a god and be proven wrong, then act as if there is no god and be proven wrong.

    My Dad listened to this at Christmas time and said when he served in the war it didn't matter what the individuals beliefs were, If their lives where in danger, every one of them prayed. I am drawn to listen to this song because it reminds me that my relationship with God is meaningful. That I am loved and need to pray not because I have a difficult time at this moment in my life, but because I want to develop my faith and know God's plan for me. Then if I ever really do need him I will know his comfort and presence in my life.

      There’s times we fall short of the glory of God I respect his decisions there’s times I wanted to put my faith away and from God but i started going back to church sundays take the sacraments I’m grateful that God touched my heart to go back to church. Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.

I love it still, and it always reminds me that, while we don't always understand why things happen the way they do, we can put trust in our Heavenly Father. He loves us and has a plan for us, and He knows and understands YOU, reader. He's always there to help and to listen, and even when the answers don't come when we want them to, He'll help us to hold on until the skies get clearer:) I've definitely seen this in my life, and I know it's true.

    Lyrics:
    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For your eternal presence
    I am learning to be patient
    And that you are really there
    Sometimes I am afraid
    And I know that's lacking faith
    But I'm beginning to understand
    That for me you have a plan
    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For you sending your son
    To die so that I live
    And for never giving up
    I'm learning every day
    That I won't always have my way
    But I'm beginning to understand
    That for me you have a plan
    Ooh
    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For you hearing my prayer
    I am learning to be patient
    And that you are really there
    There are answers I receive
    No they're not always immediate
    Sometimes I have felt defeated
    That's when I kneel down in prayer
    You show me you hear my prayer
    I'm amazed by how you care
    'Cause you hear my little prayer

I hope you can read this too and as President Holland mentioned, you are never too far to return, and you are always welcome at Christ's table with open arms. Don't listen to people who have been fallen since the fall of Adam, people are imperfect. But Christ is perfect and what you feel and how you feel is between you and Him, no one else. Know that you are loved!

    David Archuleta, I am so inspired by your revelation. This morning I woke up with one of my own. Here are 3 more verses to your song:
    Heavenly Father I am longing
    to know my sacred purpose.
    I am yearning for a family
    to be with me for all time.
    Sometimes they'll turn away
    and I know my heart will break
    but then I'll put it in your hands
    and you'll make it whole again.
    Heavenly Father I am hoping
    to be with those who truly love me.
    Forever. Yes Forever. For a time without end.
    I'm learning every day
    that I won't always have my way.
    But thy power is so great
    and family is thy plan.
    Heavenly Father I am faithful
    Lord help thou my unbelief
    I need a family filled with love
    a type of things in heaven above.
    There are answers we'll receive
    as we gather on our knees
    Send our prayer up to thee
    from our little family.
    You show us you hear our prayer
    I'm amazed by how you care
    for my little family's prayer.

    This song really touched my heart. I have been battling a trial for many years...I actually was sent home early from my mission because my health got so bad that Salt Lake felt it would be better for me to come home and get better. I have been struggling on moving on with my life this past little while...but this gave me hope because he has a plan for me and this song really testified of that simple truth. Thank you for writing it down. It is so meaningful in my life 😊😊

      Sister Boyd, your comment touched me. I was also an early return from my mission almost 20 years ago, and something that I've learned from our Father is this: your service, if given with your whole heart (and I have every reason to believe yours was), it was enough, no matter how long you were able to be 'in the field'. What matters now is what you do next. How will you serve Him the rest of your life? Keep on keeping on, Sister! We are both beloved daughters of a Heavenly Father who not only loves us, but KNOWS our hearts and our desires to serve Him. Though His plan for our lives might not be what we had envisioned when we put on the name tag, we are no less serviceable to Him even after taking off the tag! ♥

    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For your eternal presence
    I am learning to be patient
    And that you are really there
    Sometimes I am afraid,
    And I know that's lacking faith
    But I'm beginning to understand,
    That for me you have a plan
    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For you sending your son
    To die so that I live
    And for never giving up
    I'm learning everyday
    That I won't always have my way
    But I'm beginning to understand
    That for me you have a plan
    Heavenly Father, I am grateful
    For you hearing my prayer
    I am learning to be patient,
    And that you are really there
    There are answers I'm receiving
    No, they're not always immediate
    Sometimes I have felt a feeling,
    That's when I kneel down in prayer
    You show me you hear my prayer
    I'm amazed by how you care,
    Cause you hear
    My little prayer

I couldn't sleep last night, I prayed for a long time and it feels like there's really someone who listen to me..I was crying to God. Sometimes I feel like I'm losing hope. Thank you for this song David, I am learning to be patient, and I will keep this thought in my heart "don't despair God is always with you." I also said in my prayer last night, that I am thankful for having a friend who always remind me the importance of prayer..

    Al escuchar esta canción
    Lloro
    Pero lloro mucho
    Cuando me fui a servir una mision descucbri muchas cosas de la iglesia me puse a investigar lei y vi muchas cosas que no estaban bien
    No podia salir a predicar ni decir qie el LM era verdadero
    Quise volver pero me arodille ore una noche y el señor me contesto el me hablo
    Mi mente se abrio y entendi que toda la historia esta escrita por hombres con buenas y malas intenciones
    Que el espíritu me guiaria que el me hara saber lo que devo hacer em ese momento todo lo que sentia
    Enojo resentimiento se perdio y en mi entro paz amor y un impulso por predicar
    Se que la igleisa es verdadera si estas pasando momentos como los ue yo pase le pido ore ore mucho el señor le guiara el le dara la luz no la historia que puede qie sea verdad o falsa
    Asi como la Biblia puede ser miy jusgada por su contenido
    Solo el señor y el espíritu le guiara y tocara tu corazón ❤️

    I had absolutely no idea about the story behind this song.
    All I know is that no song has hit me this hard since I was a young child in primary hanging on to hope in life with the song, "A Child's Prayer".
    When my three oldest kids visit every other weekend, I sing to them to put them to sleep. they each have their own lullaby that I wrote when they were born. Then I do some quiet church songs.
    For the last two years, we've listened to this song as part of that routine, almost every night.
    I cannot tell you the amount of times I have found myself in tears during hard times, using the words of this song to guide my heart to open up and reach my Heavenly Father.
    Thank you for waking up. I believe you woke many of us up in our own darkness as well.
    Thanks to you, I found another flicker of light to guide me Home. 🙏

    God has a divine plan for each one of us. Sometimes we cannot see what that plan is. Our vision is so limited. We see through a glass darkly. This Earth life is just a split second in the grand eternal plan. We lived before, we will live again. Jesus Christ has descended below every pain and trial we have ever experienced. God never forsakes us. Even when we lose sight of his plan for us and turn our backs on God he continues to have his hand outstretched. His love is unending and his light is in all things and through all things. We all go through trials and hardships that are heart-wrenching. Many things we simply cannot understand. This is all part of the plan that our heavenly father has for us. This is part of the grand school of life. Remember that this life is just a blink of eternity. Hold fast. Endure to the end. Stay true to the light and love that God has given us. You don't have to understand everything. Trust in Him. Do not turn your back on him as so many are now. Do not lose hope. He is the only one who truly understands what we are all going through. He will fill your soul with immeasurable piece and joy. God is merciful and forgiving. There is nothing that we have done that the redemption of Christ cannot heal us from. We are not meant to understand everything. This life we are all to walk by faith. That is part of our eternal journey of progression. We must go through sorrow in order to fully appreciate the joy that awaits. Don't give up. Keep pressing forward in faith.

      @Emerica Keing This is directly from his blog/website:
      "Something I try to do to each day is begin by saying a prayer in the morning, and then end my day with a prayer at night. Sometimes, however, I fall asleep before I say my nightly prayer. One time almost a year ago I had one of these nights where I fell asleep before saying a prayer. Something unusual happened.
      That night I had a dream. It was different than anything I had experiences before. In my dream I was praying-having a conversation with God. The conversation was also different. I was singing. I could hear simple chords in my dream that I was laying a simple melody and prayer on top of.
      As I was having this conversation in music with God, He told me to get up and write this down. I thought and said, “…but… I’m sleeping. I’m not sure I know how to get up from a dream!” He told me “if you don’t get up now, you’ll forget it in the morning.” I tried everything I could to wake up, and I did! There in the middle of the night I went straight to the piano with the words and melody I had spoken in my dream still clear in my head, and wrote it all down. It was the fastest I had ever written a song because I feel this one was given to me.
      I’ve sung this song several times this year now and people kept asking where to find it so I felt it would be good to share it during this Holiday season. I hope you enjoy it and find encouragement to begin your own simple and sincere conversations in prayer!"

I am from the same faith background as you, though have not had the same struggles as you nor Can I even begin to comprehend how you have felt. I hope you are feeling the love and acceptance of many both in and out of your faith community… we all have much to learn about loving those who “sin differently than we do” … because we ALL sin one way or another. We are all just trying to find our path back to Heavenly Father thru His Son. You are loved by Him, by Them. Don’t give up on your faith… and thank you for this beautiful song. It is my new favorite!! #LightTheWorld
