Weeping
Cold
Hungry
Confused
Scared
Battered
and bruised,
an abused child gently raises his head up to Heaven and begins his tender prayer to God:
God, can you hear me? This is Billy and I don\'t know what to do. Daddy keeps hitting me. I want him to stop and that\'s why I\'m kindly asking you.
Please don\'t let him hurt me anymore. I\'ve been a good boy. Honest, you must believe that I\'m telling you the truth! So why does he always bloody my face and kick me in the belly with his boots?
I promise I\'ll go to church every Sunday! I\'ll even give You everything I got!
I only want him to love me; so please dear Lord, would You please make him stop?
