Prayer for today (9/27/16)
Father, instead of complaining all the time over things gone wrong, give me a thankful heart and an appreciative spirit to be able to always give you thanks for all things good and all things bad. Keep my soul filled with praises to you O God, knowing you won’t put no more on me than I can bear. Only you know the duration of my soul. It’s all about you. Help me to get through in the name of Jesus. Amen.
