Sometimes I Prayed Because...

Is there a thought, a nugget of wisdom, a lesson to share,

in the end of school year finish line pace that we're sprinting through right now?  

I'm thinking... I'm really not blankly staring off into space, I promise.

One thing does come to mind:

I sat in my chair this morning, sipping tea and writing in my journal... and I prayed.

I weeded the garden today... and I prayed.  

I sat on the porch swing in the darkness tonight... and I prayed.

Sometimes I prayed out of frustration.  

Sometimes I prayed because I was afraid.  

Sometimes I prayed because I was worrying.  

Sometimes I prayed because I was confused.  

Sometimes I prayed because I was thankful.  

Sometimes I prayed because I didn't know what else to do. 

Sometimes I prayed because I so desperately just want to do God wants me to do.

Keep on praying, dear friend!  

In each and every moment, let's pray! 

Let us truly pray without stopping.
