Dear God,

How do we trade an angry heart for a forgiving heart?  How do we protect ourselves from those who choose to hurt us?  

Although I bring my troubles to you, I find myself wallowing in judgement and anger.  Seconds into this useless process, I hear your voice, "Forgive."  One simple word.  Forgive.  How do we forgive and not allow others to determine our wellbeing?  

I know the answer is trust in you and in me.  Yet, fear presents itself and anger rises up once again.  It is a vicious cycle that leaves me going round and round and round.

Help me

out of

this weary circle.

Show me

the way out.

Lead me, Lord,

lead me,

I pray.

Love, Andrea
