Hi God,
I guess like most days
this one was mixed.
I spent too much time
on things not that important
and left things that might
be important, undone.
It’s all a bit unsettling.
On the other hand,
it was nice having our daughter
return from her graduate school visit
safe and sound
and in such good spirits.
So my prayer today
is to ask you to remind us
that things just “are”.
Some things seem good
and some seem less so.
It is not our job,
however, to judge them
because we don’t know
how things subsequently will ensue.
Also, I ask you, please,
to have mercy on my soul,
conflicted sinner though I be.
Amen
