OUR PRAYER

Lord, I fear I've failed you--that was not my intent.

There was a need to be taken care of, and You saw

Somehing in me, so I was the one You sent.

I was taught to do my best and always follow through. 

I need Your shoulder to lean on and continue to guide me in this task.

You know what we're dealing with, and only You can help us through.

There are people who tell us how to do things, and some of them mean well,

But they don't know the full circumstances of what's going on, and I'm not supposed to do

Thngs, because--I'm always wrong.  I've never thought I was perfect, You know that as well.

But being criticized for doing tthe best I can when we haven't got much,

Really hurts to the core.  Those who might understand are dead or just

Don't really keep in touch.

We're not blaming anyone, Lord, it's just the way life goes.  Many others

Have it much worse than we do.  It isn't a competition.  We would just ask for 

Your guidance and comfort through our trials--and blessings for our sisters and brothers. 

AND PLEASE BLESS THE PEOPLE OF THE UKRAINE THROUGH THEIR TIME OF WAR.

AMEN
