Hi God,
Today, I saw that, once again,
our daffodils were beginning
to poke up through the leaves.
That seemed like a nice reminder
that things change and stay the same.
Then things went downhill after that.
So my prayer today is to ask you
to help us remember
that even when things appear
to be going downhill,
it’s just another instance
of things changing and staying the same.
Perhaps then, going downhill
won’t hold such sway.
Also, I ask you, please,
to have mercy on my soul,
fretful sinner though I be.
Amen
