Your Will

Lord,

Help me to accept your will, even when I don't understand it.  If it be your will that I have spasms and move in a way that is foreign to me, then so be it.

If it be your will that I shed unnecessary parts of my life that I think are wonderful but that are not pleasing to You, then so be it.

If it be your will that I shed expectations about what I'm supposed to carry with me on this journey of life, then so be it.

If it be your will that I don't understand your will and must wander around in the dark for awhile, so be it.

If it be your will that I fight sadness, loneliness, and fatigue, so be it. 

But when it is time and when it is your will that others help me, I pray for the humility to accept others' efforts. 

Amen

Fatigue

Lord,

Please help me to look to You when it seems that darkness surrounds me and is waiting to crush me.

Let me see that you are there, waiting for me to reach out to You so that You can pull me through the darkness into light and comfort. 

Lord,

Help me to open my eyes today.  I need to open them not only to see You, but simply to open them.  As my body is feeling fatigue even before I rise for the day, help me to rub the sleep from them and wake. 

Amen
