It's Me Again

Hi God...it's me again,
           
             As the sun rises, I look to this day for a sense of          
             renewal and hope; that all I need to accomplish
             will be accomplished. 
             If the details of the day find me off course
             I will accept its change,
             believing this was your intention, 
             knowing you have a plan much  
             greater than my own.

love it Paulette. i am guessing, if i may, your family is/had been Catholic. This prayer is among the BEST Baptist and Pentecostal - style prayers. It just strikes me the LORD Jesus knows His own & THEY KNOW His Voice (John, Chapter 10)

Hi Anil~actually I was raised Episcopal which is very close to Catholic. I am very flattered by your comments "among the best Baptist and Pentecostal-style of prayers" ~ I write from my heart so it is good to know my words/prayers resonate to others. Blessings,Paulette

Great wisdom and a beautiful sentiment to begin the day with. As I get older, I always thank God for giving me another day to make my way.

A beautiful though to start a day with. If we are ready for this kind of a submission before that Absolute Power, everything happening that day, we will be able to accept.... be it sunshine or darkness. I love the spirit behind this chat with God

Need to internalize this message into my everyday life, Paulette. Having added about 20 hours a week to my schedule with my poetry soup activities; I now find I'm needing about 18 more hours to complete what I do every week. I'm way to busy for a person 77 years old. Somethings got to change. Blessings, Bill

Hi Bill, I adopted this mantra when I realized I am only human and that God is in charge. I also spend a lot of time writing and dealing with home and hearth and not always able to balance my day as I had hope to. I don't let it frustrate me because I believe God had other plans for me. Thanks for stopping by to comment. Blessings,Paulette
