Today's letter to God and King James verse of the day.
God,
It's Thursday, and this is my prayer for today: help me be kind when I'm tired, honest when it's easier not to be, and patient with the people under my own roof. Hold the things I can't fix before tonight. Let me see one thing You're doing before the day ends.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.Psalm 30:5b (KJV)
