Dear God, it feels good to talk to You. This is how I pour my feelings and predicaments ,though I cannot hear YOU answering my prayers, I feel comforted by the fact that YOU see my heart and my mind. Father, I wish life would not be this hard. It is so difficult to make ends meet. It has gotten harder to provide my children with what they need as the days go by. I am reaching the senior years but I have not even gotten a decent house to live in but I am grateful for the roof over our heads that protects us though shanty. I have been working hard ,Father but the inflation is killing every penny I earn. I don't have any savings and when threats like sickness strikes I have to rely on bank loans. This has been repetitive, Father. I cannot help myself but worry about our daily survival despite YOUR promise that YOU are mindful of my needs. I worry about my children-I pity them. As a mother I need to do something different from what I am doing now if I want to experience something different. YOU know what I have been working hard, preparing for so long but that dream is drawing away further and further. If this is not YOUR will, could YOU give me that peace to accept at this stage? Please Father my life has been difficult since childhood and I am tired of braving the storm everyday. I badly need a breather. I am praying, Amen.
