Daily Prayer

God, You have told me that if I truly love You I will obey You. And when I obey You, life works. It's not that I don't have problems, but I have peace. There is still chaos around me, but You are in control. Things don't always go my way, but I am content. Sometimes the wrong people succeed, but I can leave justice in Your hands.

But more than anything, I can talk to You. Nothing is blocking my prayers. My heart is soft and open to Your leading. It is good.

Amen.
