Daily Devotion - Wednesday, August 26

Theme for the Week: “Not So Common Prayers”
Wednesday Wonderings: Problems

Good morning God,
I’ve got problems. In case you didn’t know that I knew that, I thought I’d talk about them with you.

• I’m having trouble understanding others (or is it me I’m having trouble with?)
• I’m angry and so I get irritable too readily (you’re not surprised?)
• I’m anxious about the future (or is it that I’m kicking myself about regrets from the past that might resurface?)
• I’m hiding behind artificiality too often (or is it an insecurity that my feelings really aren’t important?)
• I’m trying to believe (or is it that I really don’t trust your ability to understand my humanity?)

Nothing-new here?
I know.

Help me to remember that you know my problems and to be aware of your grace that is already taking care of my stuff.
