Lord, as the day ends, the despair begins.
As the sun sinks, the stress rises.
My heart is racing.
My mind is running.
I can’t get over the bad things done to me.
I can’t get over the bad things done by me.
So here I am–on my bed, wide awake.
Calm my quivering mind.
Fill my heart with peace.
Let me rest in you.
Tonight, let me rest in peace with you.

This is such an honest prayer! I find it hard to believe that no one has commented in the 9 months since it was posted. Beautiful, simply beautiful, as only transparancy can be. I’ve had way too many nights like this … I’m older now, and pray sooner than I used to. Sometimes. 🙂 Thank you so much!
Lane,

Peace,
Chris
