My prayer

Psalm 61:1-2, “Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.”

I have to admit I do not read the newspaper that much but God always knows how to send a message. I happened to be sitting down at Empire China eating my fave brocolli with garlic sauce and usually catch up on the news there as they have a paper readily available. As I glanced the sections I noticed this verse. It stood out perhaps because you often do not see bible verses in the newspaper. I read it and was like "wow, what a reminder". Even in the quiet of a cheap chinese meal God reminded me of what I really needed to hear at that moment and everyday for that matter.

I admit that lately I have fallen into the "i don't need help" mode and have not FROGGED. (fully relied on God). I know that I need to pray more about this dissertation and I get into these modes that I am doing so well and then life happens. My prayer for this week is that I will fully rely on God and turn this dissertation over to Him and quit trying to be successful on my own. I only fail everytime.
