Lord,
I think I have it all wrong. I pray for your will to be done, then I complain to you about what's going on in my life. And I ask, "why did this have to happen" after I told you I knew your time is not my time and after I asked for the grace to be patient through this. When will I learn that I must go through these little trials and that this is your will? Lord, please help me lose mine. I get wrapped up in the things I want. Please show me mercy, Lord, though I forget all too often how much you love me. Enable me to see what you want for me so that I can show you all the more glory.
Through Christ,
Kristin
