In the words of a wise woman I know, I am like a rock in the river. As the waters (life) beat upon me, I am being polished and smoothed. All the past struggles have served to make me who I am and current ones are shaping me into all I'm meant to be. It's been a few months since I've posted and in this time I have allowed discouragement and some depression to keep me from experiencing a greater level of intimacy in my relationship with God. I've got to get myself together. I've got decisions to make and a whole lot of praying to do. I need to quiet some of the noise in my life, take stock of what is truly important and trust God to order my steps according to His perfect plan for my life. I need God now more than ever as I struggle with difficult decisions that will affect both me and my family alike. I know that I have to trust God and not lean on my own understanding of things and I pray for strength to endure, strength to stand, strength to do what is best for me and my family.
Lord I pray for guidance, greater wisdom and discernment and increased sensitivity to Your voice. God please grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference. For my life, I pray for Balance ~ Harmony ~ Peace ~ Contentment.
