Dear God,

Why do so many things in life go according to plan, and others seem like there’s not even a thread of hope of seeing manifested?

I have a dream, envision the dream, pray about it and give you control, and most often I live the dream. It may take a while, years even, but for the most part I get what I ask for.

But in certain areas, especially related to family, things seem to move at a snail’s pace, and I wonder if I’ll ever live to see old patterns of behavior made new. I wonder if I’ll ever be made new in this world.

I see subtle changes in family members, but in others the damage is so clear. Damage from parents not being good role models, damage from my own actions and anger, damage I’m not sure how to repair.

But you do! Lord Jesus, mend what is broken. Fix the damage, the rust and crud that has settled into our live.  Make us all new!

Heal us all. Help us be more like you, Jesus! Live like you! Love like you!

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.
