A Prayer when you’re Running on Empty

December 10, 2006

I feel like the last couple of weeks I’ve been coasting down hill, running on empty. Like many people, my life has become insanely busy and the more important things have been pushed to the curb or all together forgotten.

Often times I’ve thought of pulling off the interstate to refuel, but obstacles in the road of life keep me missing the nearest exit. So I chug along, hoping to make it through the chaos of the holiday season, my final destination.

Even today is filled with the business of church, my son’s matinee performance and a party afterwards. When there’s no time to pull over and refuel, that’s when we need supernatural strength to keep going. Prayer is the best way to refuel when you’re on the go and running on empty.

Lord, prepare my heart to hear from you today, to have the strength to do the things I need to do, to make time to refuel the next week when I’m running low, and to slow down, especially around the curves.

From the day I received my first diary in the second grade, I've had a passion expressing myself through writing. Later as a journalist and novelist, I realized words, if used powerfully, have the ability to touch, stir, and reach from the depths of one soul to another. Today as a writing and health coach, I inspire others to live their extraordinary life and encourage them to share their unique stories.
