My Current Prayer

"When my heart is embittered, I am pierced within, I am senseless and ignorant; I am like a beast before You. Nevertheless, I am continually with You; You have taken hold of my right hand. With Your counsel You will guide me, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but You? And besides You, I want to desire nothing on earth. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God, be the strength of my heart and my portion forever." Adapted from Psalm 73

this is really powerful Emily. I really need to memorize this prayer myself and put it to work. I have been so bitter lately. You always share the most wonderful pieces at just the right time.

I hope you find lots of strength in this prayer. I know I am going to try.

All the best!
