I'm excited and sad for the holiday season this year. My parents are gone now, and my adult children live so far away. I'm unable to visit them, so this season is very sad. I'm so very grateful for a healthy and happy family and grandchildren. I just wish I could be closer to them. Please pray for me to get through this holiday season with joy, surrounded by family and friends.

I'm not feeling very confident today. I'm struggling to stay on task this week and it's already the middle of a hectic week. Please pray for me to focus and complete my tasks on time.
