Prayer for today (3/28/16)

Father, I have seen the times when I didn't understand why no one wanted to be with me, whether it be a family member or friends or even a lover. l am so glad you were there for me helped me get through it all. Now I understand where you were trying to take me. I'm so thankful to you for that. You were removing all those things out of my path that would hurt me. It was for my good and for your glory. Help me follow your lead. In Jesus' name. Amen.
