Today's Prayer

Lord, thank you for seeing me through today. When tears dropped to my plate during my prayer for lunch and I didn't even know what to ask or say, You did. You knew that those weren't the first tears shed this morning or that they would be the last for the day. You know how emotionally and mentally exhausted I am. You know that today was a struggle from the moment I woke up. You also knew what I needed. You knew that I needed the girls to play by themselves happily. You knew that I needed Megan to start a fork sword fight over our chicken nuggets that ended up with all of us girls laughing hysterically. You knew that I needed all three kids to nap for two hours at the same time this afternoon. You knew that I needed Michael to laugh at his sisters and shreak happily when I kissed his chubby cheeks. You knew that I needed the girls to parade around the house in their red shoes and play jewelry, Megan singing her version of "Jesus Loves Me." You know, and I praise you!
