Tonight I Pray For Stillness

Tonight; I lay here.. mind spinning; heart racing; & stomach in knot.
As I take all of this into consideration, in the whirpool my mind has created one thing comes to mind & everything else doesn't seem so important. I recently had a conversation with my bestfriend about how I was struggling. How I had managed to lose my way. My heart was only filled with hurt & I didn't know what to do anymore. His response was: "Do you talk to God? Do you pray?"

Do I pray? Do I talk to God? Rarely.

He's a father? How am I suppose to really on him to take my problems away when the fathers in my life have caused problems. Yet, EVERYONE trusts him & leans on him for help? Then my next excuse.. If everyone else leans on him, he couldn't possibly have enough time for my pathetic issues.
But I was hurting..

So I prayed.

My Prayer:

Lord, I lay here with a mind spinning faster then the wheels on a race car; my heart racing; stomach in a knot. 

If this is how I feel,  I can only imagine how the rest of  this world is feeling?

So with all of this crazyness causing my pain; I pray for stillness. 

I pray for stillness in the midst of the hearts all around the world. 

I pray everyone take a step back & see what they have to offer; not what they don't. 

Lord, I pray for stillness. Amen.
