dear god,
i've been a bad person. i think not being able to trust in you completely makes me anxious. then i behave like a wounded animal because i think i'm owed a living and i need to defend myself.

will you please help me. help my heart to rest in you. help my heart to find its bearing on you. and help me to lean heavily on you because i have no strength of my own anyway.

most of all, help me to not think so highly of myself. and to assume that i can make things go my way because i worry over them. open my eyes to help me see that i'm already part of your wonderful plan.

you are my father and i am your child. and that if i know everything you know, i will have everything that i ask for.

so thank you god, that i already have everything i need and want.
