what do you do

when everything around you seems to be falling apart around you? when every bill you have is past due? when your home is slated for foreclosure? when your job just added the responsibilities of two other people to your plate and your plate was already full? when they have done this but not even entertained the idea of increasing your pay? when your health is failing due to stress and other complications? when the health of family members is failing with no chance of improvement because of age or type of illness? when your friends have issues of their own to cope with so you choose not to confide in them? when people from your past feel they are still entitled to you and shuts down when you explain that they no longer have that privilege? when your kids behave as if you have never taught them anything good? when the person you're in love with and claims to be in love with you can't be yours because they have to clean up some things on their end before they can become integrated into your life? when you want to just get in your car and drive just so you can get away from it all but you don't even have enough money for gas to get you started?

what do you do? you pray, you pray without stopping, you pray until all that you need is fullfilled, you pray until you get tired of praying and then you pray some more and while you pray you thank the creator for all that he has done in your life and all that he will continue to do, you thank him for the good and the bad, you thank him for waking you and allowing you to see another day. afterall he didn't have to let you live but he did because he had a purpose for you and you are not allowed to give up. you pray and give thanks until all that is supposed to be yours in his will is indeed yours. that's what you do.

peace and blessings!
