Ugh

Where am I in my ingratitude? Do I come back to the throne of grace frequently to thank God?


Dad called and harangued me for not reading Mom's blog this morning, and I got mad and hung up on him. It ruined my morning. I'm just irritated by him. 

Lord, please change my attitude. Help me to see that despite his failings, he loves me and is for me. I don't like him right now. Will you change that in me? He seems bent on irritating me, making me feel guilty, inconveniencing me. I cannot do an about face and live and let live without Your intervention. Please please intervene and change my heart.

I pray for chapter 11 of my book. Where do I go from here Lord? Show me the way.

I pray for the swim meet tonight. I pray that Lily and Isabel will do well, and feel at peace. I pray that I will be kind despite my discomfort at being there.

I pray for my peacemaking group, that Robin will be able to do it on that date and that I can move forward in my preparations.

I pray for Lily and Isabel as they learn their math facts. Please give them the will to learn them, and an ease of memorization.

I pray for Lee, for his attitude, for his spirit.

In Your son's precious name I pray,
Amen
