More Good Intentions

Well, I had planned to post yesterday and the day before, but I never managed to get to it. Of course, I did manage to get to my emails, some social, some about crafting for the homeless, some regarding my Etsy shop online, and other issues. So, why was I able to find time to do that on my computer, but I couldn't find time to post about my prayer life? Sort of makes me re-think my priorities.

Life does get in the way. And on days when I get absolutely nothing done, not even emails, then I understand. But this past few days, I surely could have taken a few moments, and reminded myself in this online journal, just how my prayer life helped me each day.

Today, for example, I could not have managed to do anything if I had not had the faith to ask for fortitude and stamina and patience, several times, throughout the day. My faith got me through it. It wasn't a horrible day. It wasn't a catastrophic day. Oh, I've had those, my friends, as have you, I'm sure. But it was a "trying" day. I tried to do this, and I tried to do that...still, I did manage to make it through.

So, dear Father, forgive me for almost ignoring this yet another day. And thank you for being there for me, throughout all the little, annoying, frustrating, and tiring, "trying" times each day. I am so grateful that you are there for me.
