This morning … my thoughts turn into a humble prayer.

Lord, we come to you in prayer so often. Maybe during a worship service … or like today … wherever I happen to be at the moment. I sometimes get confused … even a bit uncertain. Do I pray for “things and stuff” I shouldn’t pray for? Do I expect you to answer me? Well — I think I’m finally “getting it.” You answer me by just “being there.” You answer me with “small miracles” along the way. Random acts of kindness, quiet courage in the midst of pain, reminders that I don’t walk alone. When I pray — like now — I feel connected, even to someone I don’t know. And then when someone prays for me? … something happens inside my soul. Gratitude. Humility. A light goes on, and I know that light is YOU!! Thank-you, Lord, for listening to me. You are closer than I ever thought possible. Amen. (So grateful for the connection we all share … peace Don)
