Dear God,

Thank you for this day. Tomorrow is not promised and I seem to repeatedly forget this. There are a million unanswered questions in my heart about tomorrow and a void is left where those answers belong. I am easily tempted to fill that void with my frustration and anger. On those days that are so painful to walk through, I need to remember that there is a lesson in each experience that You offer me – the lessons that teach me to be more faithful to You. I wish to follow Your lead but very often, during my agonizing trials and tests of faith, I become oblivious of Your genuinely loving whispers and lose hope; that is when I want to seek you the most. Oh, how I forget that You are the Most High, the Almighty – the One whose love can fill the void in my heart. It is during these distressful times that my fears become bigger than my faith — when the light seems to keep getting further out of reach and all I want to do is give up. But then I remember that it is also during these times that when I choose to step outside of my circumstances, I find myself surrendering all of my worries, doubts and fears to You. When I just let it be and return to You, something truly miraculous happens. It is in this void that I find Your grace and Your divine utterance simply reminds me that this precious grace is enough, that Your love and guidance is enough for me to keep striving forward. You continue to work in my life to fill my emptiness so that every moment of my every day is meaningful. My journey remains blessed with Your daily miracles and I find myself wanting to go on, believing in Your miracles and Your way.

Please be present in my heart all the way through. For everything in my life, I thank you!

Love always,
Me
