I think we all need something to believe in, no matter what our ‘religion’ is.

An excerpt from my journal…

Dear God,

My heavenly Father, my Creator and my Redeemer. Look out for me and guide me. I am stubborn and I think I know the way.

It is hard for me to let go and put my trust in you.

But I know – because you’ve shown me time and time again that when I do, when I trust – everything does work out.

I know it’s part blind faith and part my doing the most with what you provide for me – and sometimes what you don’t.

I am struggling tonight and it’s hard to feel so tiny and alone.

Keep me safe.

Hold me close until the dawn.

Amen
