Procrastination

Lord as you know I lost my job, my career, my confidence and self-respect. I was foolish and allowed the bullying from senior staff to get at me, which affected my work with the patients at the nursing home. My patience gradually grew thin and when I was assaulted I retaliated and restrained the patient. For that I was sacked. Forgive me because I’m finding it hard to forgive myself. For one seconds loss of control I lost my career. I feel my depression rapidly approaching; again I can feel its grip on me growing each day. I feel lost dejected and want to hide in my room spending hours in a fantasy world inside my mind to escape not just from the world but myself too. Please help me regain my confidence my patience and love for which I was once respected and renowned for and help me beat this growing depression. I know what I have to do, but my faith is weak and body lethargic. Please Lord, do not let me enter another depression; it took me years to defeat the last one. Help me fight back to become a better person for the experience.

Father, I just first wanna thankYou for the blessings You've been pourin upon my life.ThankYou for trusting me and helping me to do Your work. But Lord,You know the temptations I battle with.You know that I give into them too quickly and that I let them get out of control.Lord I dont want this sexual impurity in my life,I just wanna serve You.Thats all Iv wanted to do since I came to know You. So Lord take these evil desires away,it aint right for me to have them and they aren't gonna help me on my spiritual path so just get rid of 'em.If I wanna be a soldier for You Lord,my life needs to be as pure as possible.So reveal me Lord, and keep me strong when I'm feelin weak and I feel like givin in agen.In Your name Lord,amen

Dear Lord, I come to you not knowing what to say, mostly because I'm confused about my feelings. I'm stuck. In life, in one place. And I don't know where I am, I'm just lost. I've got this great relationship with Steff, or so I think, but we've sinned and made mistakes, everyone does, so why is it so hard to let go and make it back to you? I so wish sometimes that we can be like we were. I could worship you so freely and speak to freely to you. But now, I've lost my confidence and I'm shaken, I don't know what to expect! At times I can really want to be with you, and at others just not be bothered. And I know thats not right. We both need you Lord! So I pray that as we keep walking through life, you'll slowly lead us back into the life you've set out for us, and change our inner selves back to how you want us to be! I'm not in the right state or frame of mind to praise you, I don't feel, although we should praise you all the time! No matter what. But Lord I do thankyou for the patience I know you've had for me and Steff. I appreciate it, and I know that you'll only wait longer for me if needs be, because you want me, and I want you, you know that, deep inside my heart you can tell the truth! And you know I'd rather be with you for eternity than walk this short life alone! I'm so so so sorry Lord! Don't abandon me in my times of need. Help me to pull through this, help US to get through this. Because in the end, it will be the best thing ever. There's nothing better than to be with you, in your courts. Please Help me Lord! Love.. Your Son, Jonna

Lord I want to ask for your forgiveness and blessing today. I want to ask that you will be with me at this time and help me overcome my feelings of self-pity and selfishness. I know I have not acted entirely as you would wish but I am so sorry Lord. I need your hand upon me. You know the things I want but help me to see that they will happen only if they are part of your plan. Lord you are so good, I am not worthy but help me to always know that you love me no matter what. You have an unconditional grace even for a sinner like me.

Father, I have sinned against you and against my family. I am so sorry for the hurt I've caused. I want so much to turn back to you and live your way again. I know I'm forgiven and I know you will help me to do this right if I just commit myself completely to you, but I'm finding it so hard to put all the sinful feelings out of my life. I want to give this whole situation to you now Lord. Please protect me from temptation and guard my mind from the thoughts and memories that can lead me away from you again. Help me to use each of these thoughts as a trigger to turn to you. Lord, please help my family, heal their pain; help me to do all I can and be all I should be to try to make amends for how I've hurt them. Lord, I am truly sorry and I want to get this right from now on.... But I know I'm far too weak to do it by myself. I give this burden to you Lord and ask for your help here. Thank you that you are there for me despite everything....
