Have you ever struggled to find time to spend with the Lord? I have and here’s a prayer I wrote during one of those times.
Lord,
The last four or five weeks
have been especially hard.
I’ve traveled nearly 10,000 miles
and preached nearly forty times.
By the end of the scheduled meetings
it felt like I was just going through the motions.
I was tired of preaching and praying for people,
tired of talking and smiling,
tired of the sound of my own voice.
I was tired of me!
That’s why I so desperately need this time to be alone with You.
You don’t press me.
You seem content to let me enjoy Your presence
without demands.
Thanks Lord,
I need this time to be still,
to be renewed.
Amen.
This is Richard Exley straight from the heart.
