Dear Lord, I ask that you please guide me through these troubled times, help me find a way to pay our bills, put food on the table for the kids, and still be able to bring the stepkids out for their Christmas visit with their dad. I pray that you help my sister find peace and help her to fight the demons inside of her, help my friends who are struggling with family and marital problems, and help everyone find a sense of peace that should envelope us at this time of year. I give it all up to you Lord, and wait patiently for your guidance.
