My friend says that all prayer should begin with praise and gratitude for my lord, Jesus Christ. Then if there is time left, I should pray for others, and if there is still more time left, I can pray for myself. It's important to note that prayers for myself are last in line since they are not important -- because God already knows what I need.
I am touched by knowing that God is in charge. Everything is in his control and the more I try to control it, the more he must stand back. To have a life free of anxiety and worry, I have to let go of the steering wheel and let the Lord guide. It's so hard because I'm scared to let go, afraid of where it will take me. But my friend said that it's just like a horse in a blizzard. If you just let go of the reigns, no matter how lost you are, the horse will lead you back home.
I'm letting go of the reigns. I want to know where God will lead -- I want to find HOME.
