Hey God, it's me again. You know something is wrong don't you? Well, you know everything, but it seems I have these deep conversations with you when things aren't going well. Yeah, I get up in the morning and I say hi, or I am driving and I think of you, but I don't really come and sit and talk to you unless something is wrong and quite frankly, that's a bit messed up ...
You are God, you are almighty, you know everything ... Yet I chose to only seek you when I'm down ... to only come to you when I'm tired and upset. I am sorry ... I love you more than that God, I love you with all my heart and I am always in awe that I can come and talk to you like this. I just want you to know that. To know that I am thinking of you.
Right now, I'm more upset with myself than anything else. I've become self absorbed ... self centered ... self seeking ... I let myself just think of myself and I am upset because of that. Where is your will God? Where is the yearning to do what you want me to do? I want that back. I want your will be done. You know me God, you have made me and you know my inner workings and you know what it is I desire and what it is I want. However, please, line those up to your will ... throw away whatever it is inside of me that is outside of your plan, no matter how much it hurts. I know this cleaning will be for a season, but I also know I will come out better in the end.
My one desire above all else, is to serve you.
I ask that you help me with "Your will be done", yes Lord, this is what I want.
Thank you for listening,
Thank you and I pray all this in Jesus' name ...
Your daughter,
Shanella.

Beautiful. Heartfelt.
Loving God I pray that you meet every need she asks. Quench whatever thrist she is yearning for. Today, Father,overtake her with your love, and peace that surpasses all knowledge, that she is not forgotten. Let her know that her strength is not suffient, but that the spirit within us is all we need to get to our destined pathway. I thank you now God that she understands that this moment was not by chance, and that strategicly she was placed to become humbled before our father, which we all need to be. I stand in ageement that every need shall be met. Jesus name,Amen
