Pause for Prayer: THURSDAY 8/11

 
Though it's mostly a mystery to me, Lord,
you know all that  this day will bring
still I'll hazard a guess, and I'll bet I'm right,
that sometime today: 

    1) I'll worry, fret and be vexed
           about things over which I'm powerless...

    2) I'll run and hide in anxiety
            from what I have no need to fear...
 
    3) I'll mull over, overthink, second-guess
            every word I speak and the deeds I do...

Oh, what a waste of a day, Lord! 
 
A waste of this day, 
    a day you've made
        and offered as gift to me... 
 
So I pray for the faith I need, Lord,
   to receive this day - just as it comes,
   to live this day in peace with you,
   to trust that you're always right by my side,
      - to help me waste not a minute!

Amen.
