My Prayer.

Lord,

I write this letter of prayer to you in earnest, with a heart yearning for fulfillment that only you can provide. Over the course of this week I've felt so much hurt and so much pain that I haven't cried this much in a long time. You are my rock, my shelter, and I pray that you may keep my eyes fixed on you, that I won't be led astray by my self-deprecating thoughts and brokenness. There is no one else I can turn to like I can to you, for you knit my inner-most being and knew me before I came to be. I pray that you will give me strength and guide me through these turbulent times in my life, because I know I can't go it alone. Never do you cease to surprise me with your continual reminders that you are the only one that I can truly depend on; although this might bring initial pain I thank you for this because I can easily be led down the treacherous path of idolatry. My God you are the Alpha and the Omega, beautiful and glorious in all you do, and while I shall never in my humanity begin to comprehend your majesty, I will continue to praise you in all my days.

In your son's precious name I pray, Amen.
