ABC 123

This morning I awoke after a really great night of sleep without any medication. I am so very happy about this!

Around 7:00am I sat in bed with my little dog at my side snoozing away happily, I started to pray. Many times, when I start to pray I get intimidated. I think sometimes that I have no idea what to pray for, how to pray, and that my prayers are not effective. Well, we all know who is lying to me.. but to get over this hump and refute the lie is up to me with God's help.

So as I started to pray, I had a little vision. A vision of a chalkboard with 'ABC 123' written on it. I immediately started praying a prayer like a child. Like I was in kindergarten. Asking for things like "Please let my day go good" and "please help me be nice to the people I don't like" and "help me to get my work done" and then I started thanking Him for the simple things like, "thanks for letting me spend a good time with my friends last night and please bless them" and "thanks that I woke up today". Then I said "I'm sorry that I'm a jerk" and with all the trust and faith I could muster "Here is this heart, please make it soft and not hard like a rock".
