Missing Yesterday

Attended a workshop entitled "Laying your Burdens Down." I have so many burdens: some fresh, some very old, some I didn't even realize were there until I was confronted by them. The situation with my parents is adding more burdens because it has created dissension among my siblings and other extended members of my family. Everyone is picking sides and I am stuck in the middle wishing we could go back to the way things use to be. It's crazy how we don't miss yesterday until something tragic happens today. I would love to go back to last week where I was just lost within myself. Now everyone, and it seems like almost everything, is lost. That's why it is best to not take anything for granted. Even now, although this is a hurtful time, I am thankful because it could be ALOT worse.

My Prayer:

Lord thank you for today. Thank you that is not as bad as it could be. Thank you for the health, strength, and life of each of my family members. Thank you for peace that surpasses all understanding. Help me to continue to lay all my burdens on You especially this situation with my family. Lord restore, reconcile, and correct. Lord bring us back to You.

In Jesus' Name,

Amen, Amen, & Amen
