Different Blessings…
June 19, 2011
Dear God,
This is hard. It’s hard to be so much in need all the time. It’s hard to see others with so much and have to continually battle envy. It’s hard not to resent the “haves” and not cry about being a “have not.”
But then I stop.
I’m not a “have not,” I’m a “have less” with different blessings. I have 2 children I love and who love me. I have many REAL friends. I have a great family, and I have had your presence to sustain me, Lord.
Help me to want less, Lord.
Help me to envy less and thank you more.
Help me to worry less about what I “have not” and be truly grateful for what I have.
