My life is filled with many fears:
Fear of
failure Fear of
loss
Fear of
spiders and bees
Fear of
the unexpected, and the unwanted. So
I pray.
My life if filled with much sadness:
Sadness for
my friends as they suffer loss.Sadness for my child when he struggles.
Sadness for my family as they bear burdens I cannot help them carry. So I pray.
My life is filled with apprehension:
What if
I lose my job?
What if
I have an accident or serious illness?
What if
my home is destroyed?
What if
my freedoms are denied, my faith challenged, my life turned over? So I pray.
My life is filled with joy:
The feel
of the morning air when I walk my dogs.
The
sunrise guaranteed, even behind the clouds of storm.
The love
I receive every time I give love to someone.
The God
who calms my fears, alleviates my sadness and provides security when all else
fails.
And that is when I really pray. Because praying thanks and
praise makes the rest insignificant.
……………………………………………………………………I pray a lot.
