Letting Go

It doesn't mean giving up. But it sure is hard to let go. God give me the strength to trust You. Help me to depend on Your Will. Give me what You think I should have WHEN You think I should have it. And, protect my heart in the process.

Lord, I give my yearnings to You to deal with. I give YOU what i am letting go of. I trust YOU with my dreams, my hopes, and my future. I know that You know what's best, even when I don't. But, I ask You to care for and protect what I am giving You.

Most of all, Lord, I ask that You help me be who I should be, and be ready to receive what You decide I should have...

In Jesus' Holy Name I pray, even though I know I don't deserve it...

Waiting

God, I don't know what You have planned for my life. I don't know what You have planned for my future. But, I'm going to wait and let You show me.

You know the desires of my heart. You know what I need. And, You are well aware of what I ask for with every breath I breathe each day.

You also know that I am not perfect. I sometimes try to get ahead of You. Sometimes I fail You. But, my love for You never waivers, even when You say "No"; even when you don't think I'm ready; even when YOU aren't ready.

Please keep my friends, and those I love more than life itself, safe and blessed each day. Give them hope. Help them to understand who they are meant to be. Give them peace and understanding. And, help them rest. Open their eyes so they can see the blessings You have placed before them, if they would just receive it.

And, help me be a blessing.

In Jesus's Holy Name I pray! Amen!
