Dear Father God, please take my hand and lead me down the path you wish me to go. I try to follow my heart and believe that you speak to me there.
I ask your forgiveness for my sins, those known and unkown. You know my struggles with finances and my desire to be a good steward with the blessings you bestow on me but I know sometimes I fall short and mess up. I am actually afraid of going to the store in fear of spending too much money on the things I think I need. Help me to discern between my needs and desires.
Now I'm having problems with lethargy and even sloth? I don't know whether it's physical or mental. I have a great desire to do more. I do not like living as I have been. At night I dream of doing the simple things that need to be done around here and yet I get up in the morning and don't do them... everything seems to be such an effort! I don't know if it's just because I'm old, because my body just won't do what I want to do, or if the weather is part of it. I've always said that storms make me lethargic, and for me being 'under the weather' is true. Seems like all I can manage to do is sit around, or lay around, and watch tv, be on the computer, play games... WHY??
I've accepted that I have to slow down to keep myself safe from falling, etc. But do I have to give up doing the things I need to do to take care of myself and my little ones?
If it's something I can choose then please help me to choose to do what my heart desires.. I'm tired of thinking that I can't do it! I want to be more active.
God, I love you with every fiber of my being. You are more important to me than anything else in the universe! My only desire is to be who YOU want me to be, to do what YOU want me to do.. but somehow I feel that you want me to do more than I am doing.
I thank you that I have the opportunity to earn additional income and that I have been able to get to the job and do what I need. I have other opportunities to earn income and I've been terribly neglectful at doing them. PLEASE help me today, God.
I am so grateful for the many people in my life who bless me with so much love and support. I can't say enough how blessed I am.
I covet your healing hand on all my family and friends who are in need of a healing for whatever their circumstances. You know who they are.
I ask all this in the beloved name of Jesus,
AMEN
